CALC Data is to be updated by internal database calculation. The
Calc button assigns the data source such that FuelsManager
will calculate the data value for this point.
LOCAL Data is to be received from another FMDataManager Point.
The Local button opens the Database Edit dialog box,
allowing the user to select another FuelsManager database
point to be used as the data source for the point. This option
is only available for the Tank Point - Ambient Temperature
process variable.
OPC Data is to be updated from the assigned OPC Server.
Presently, output to an OPC server is not supported. The
OPC button opens the OPC Server Configuration dialog
box, allowing the user to select an OPC Server tag to be
used as the data source for the point.
