Note For ICMFA000000-AAxx only, multiply the MFA values in the above table by 0.66 to calculate the OPC UA
Machine Adapter limits when Store and Forward is enabled.
Note Some OPC UA Servers may negotiate a different interval at the time of the connection if the configured
PublishInterval does not match its available subscription intervals. It is recommended to confirm that the OPC UA Server to
which the Mini Field Agent is connected can serve data at the requested interval.
Note The minimum supported OPC UA Machine Adapter PublishInterval on the Field Agent is 500ms when running Predix
Machine 17.1.2 or later.
