Therefore the value of the attributes dataType and pos together specifies which parameter
in the assembly the result value should be mapped to.
Result of validating output string with only a Blob
The validating in SOPAS Single Device will give the following result:
EtherNet/IP assembly string OK.
Result in PLC with only a Blob
