(group enable_flag name address read_write_mode cycle_millisecs point ...)
The name of the group.
The address of the group, if required. Some devices require an associated address for reading or writing a block of data. For many cards this value is zero.
R, W, or RW (case-insensitive) to specify the group as read-only, write-only, or read-write respectively. Write-only points cannot be added to a group with read-only or read-write attributes. When a writeable point is added to a writeable group, any changes to the point's value do not take effect until the group is written (points are normally written immediately). It is very uncommon to have a read-write group.
The cycle (or heartbeat) time in milliseconds associated with the group, upon which automatic reading or writing is performed. Typically, points are read or written in groups, and the individual cycle time for each point is set to 0.
If set, the point is registered for exceptions with the Cascade DataHub (if active).
