IEC 61158-5-15:2010

Industrial communication networks - Fieldbus specifications - Part 5-15: Application layer service definition - Type 15 elements

IEC 61158-5-15:2010 specifies the structure and services of the type 15 IEC fieldbus Application Layer, in conformance with the OSI Basic Reference Model (ISO/IEC 7498) and the OSI Application Layer Structure (ISO/IEC 9545). This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2007 and constitutes a technical revision. The main change with respect to the previous edition are editorial corrections.

Réseaux de communication industriels - Spécifications des bus de terrain - Partie 5-15: Définition des services de la couche application - Éléments de type 15

L'IEC 61158-5-15:2010 vise à définir les services mis en place pour
a) l’utilisateur de FAL à la frontière entre l’utilisateur et la Couche application du Modèle de référence de bus de terrain; et
b) la Gestion des systèmes au niveau de la frontière entre la Couche application et la Gestion des systèmes selon le Modèle de référence de bus de terrain.
La présente partie de l’IEC 61158 spécifie la structure et les services de la couche application de bus de terrain IEC type 15, en conformité au modèle de référence de base OSI (ISO/IEC 7498) et à la structure de couche application OSI (ISO/IEC 9545).
