6.1 The RESOURCE containing the results of a response to a valid query must include one FIELD / PARAM element with:

• 6.1a ucd="em.wl" // datatype="double" // arraysize="1" or "" or not provided
• 6.1b ucd="em.line" // datatype="char" // arraysize="*"

Warnings

These tests are drawn from strongly encouraged "SHOULD" statements in the SLAP standard.

4.2a The service must return a legal response without error to a legal data query that contains the "REQUEST=queryData" argument. (NI)

5.1b The RESOURCE containing the results of a response to a metadata query should include PARAM elements for all supported INPUT parameters, not just the five compulsory ones.

5.1c The PARAM elements for INPUT parameters in the RESOURCE containing the results of a response to a metadata query should have DESCRIPTIONs.

6.1 The RESOURCE containing the results of a response to a valid query should include one FIELD / PARAM element with:

• 6.1d ucd="phys.atmol.element" // datatype="char" // arraysize="*"
• 6.1e ucd="phys.atmol.initial;phys.atmol.level" // datatype="char" // arraysize="*"
• 6.1f ucd="phys.atmol.final;phys.atmol.level" // datatype="char" // arraysize="*"
