====Data Point Names====

ARDI uses //data point names//, which is a unique identifier for each and every dynamic property.

It's a code made up of three pieces separated by colons - the ID of the **asset**, the ID of the **property** and the name of the **node**.

You can find the name of an ARDI data point by hovering your mouse over the name of the node in the [[ardiadminguide:data_linking|data linking]] page.

You can also determine the ID by looking at the URL in the binding page - 

===Examples===

For example, the measurement being taken for the asset temperature (property #12) of the Tank Temperature Transmitter (asset #203) is **203:12:measurement**.

The state of the door (open or closed) on asset #223, property #15 is **223:15:state**.
