Default Data Source Site Parameter

This site parameter is used by model 49000 to specify the data source type. The data source type will be used to map various objects (variables, for example) to the batch data. For example, if you have ProductABC in Plant Applications and the same product is called Batch123 in your batch data, you can create a cross reference so that Plant Applications will know that Batch123 is ProductABC and vice versa.

The available data sources are determined by the active data sources listed in Data Source Types.

If you have specified a data source in Model 118, Model 118 takes precedence over Model 49000.
