The components for specifying the scan rate are:

Base Rate Minimum rate at which device points can be polled on the port.
Scan Rate Is a multiple of the Base Rate.
Step 3.1.3. Select Update Criteria for a Device Point

Enter the frequency at which the CIMPLICITY device communications option will read this point's data, based on the port's Base Rate.

Note: If you define Trigger Settings for a point, the Scan Rate field is disabled.
