Identification link - Part 2: Types/models, lots/batches, items and characteristics
IEC 61406-2:2024 complements IEC 61406-1 by providing additional requirements for those cases where data elements are encoded within the Structured Identification Link string with standardized syntax and semantics. In addition, this document covers cases where the uniqueness relates to product types/models or lots/batches. The default assumption is that the Identification Link identifies unique objects such as unique serialized products, assets, persons or packages, unless otherwise identified.
Identifizierungslink - Teil 2: Typen/Modelle, Lose/Chargen, Artikel und Merkmale
Lien d’identification - Partie 2: Types/modèles, lots/lots unitaires, éléments et caractéristiques
IEC 61406-2:2024 complète l’IEC 61406-1 en fournissant des exigences supplémentaires pour les cas où des éléments de données sont codés dans la chaîne de lien d’identification structuré avec syntaxe et sémantique normalisées. En outre, le présent document couvre les cas où l’unicité se rapporte aux types/modèles de produits ou aux lots/lots unitaires. L’hypothèse par défaut est que le lien d’identification identifie des objets uniques tels que des produits sérialisés uniques, des actifs, des personnes ou des paquetages, sauf indication contraire.
Identifikacijska povezava - 2. del: Tipi/modeli, loti/serije, artikli in značilnosti (IEC 61406-2:2024)
Standard IEC 61406-2:2024 dopolnjuje standard IEC 61406-1 z dodatnimi zahtevami za primere, kadar so podatkovni elementi znotraj niza strukturirane identifikacijske povezave kodirani s standardizirano sintakso in semantiko.
Ta dokument zajema tudi primere, kadar se enoličnost navezuje na tipe/modele ali lote/serije izdelkov. Privzeto se predpostavlja, da identifikacijska povezava opredeljuje enolične objekte, kot so enolični serijski izdelki, sredstva, osebe ali paketi, razen če je opredeljeno drugače.
