I’m trying to set up a testpoint/parameter and don’t know what value type to assign to it.

 

Please can someone explain the differences between them?

@JayElBee691 

testpoints are used to simple group parameters that are alike in the same group.

Parameters - are the actual things that you will measure - temperature / pressure / running hrs

Easiest way is to setup a Parameter Template with the needed test points and parameters assigned to each test point and then just apply the template to your objects.

Below you can see an example of such a Parameter Template.
