The Content of a template defines the settings for a module that are applied when a template is used.

The structure of the content is the same as the structure of modules. Any setting that can be applied to a module can also be set in a template.

The following example shows the definition of a template named DQ_Template. The template defines reusable settings for an output module. Specifically, it defines the name, the type and the output address of the module.

  "Templates": {
    "Modules": [
      {

        "Name": "DQ_Template",

        "Content": {
          "Name": "DQ",
          "TypeIdentifier": {
            "OrderNumber": "6ES7 522-1BL01-0AB0",
            "Version": "V1.1"
          },
          "IoConfiguration": {
            "OutputAddress": "32"
          }
        }

      }
    ]
  }
