Implementation in Proteus Schema

All data attributes with type NullableVolume (the base type of Volume) are implemented as DEXPI generic attributes for physical quantities.

Example

The instance volume1 represents a Volume of 80.0 cm3.

Implementation in Proteus Schema

<GenericAttribute
  Format="double"
  Value="80.0"
  Units="CentimetreCubed"
  UnitsURI="http://data.posccaesar.org/rdl/RDS1357874" ...>

Note that the <GenericAttribute> element must have a Name and an AttributeURI attribute. They depend on the data type attribute of the DEXPI class that owns the instance volume1. For a complete example, see the attribute VolumePerStroke of the DEXPI class Displacer.
