FOREWORD
1) ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (the International Electrotechnical Commission)
form the specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are members of ISO or IEC
participate in the development of International Standards through technical committees established by the
respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC technical committees
collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in
liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the work. In the field of information technology, ISO and IEC have
established a joint technical committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC and ISO on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an
international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation
from all interested IEC National Committees and ISO member bodies.
3) IEC, ISO and ISO/IEC publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted
by IEC National Committees and ISO member bodies in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to
ensure that the technical content of IEC, ISO and ISO/IEC publications is accurate, IEC or ISO cannot be held
responsible for the way in which they are used or for any misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees and ISO member bodies undertake to
apply IEC, ISO and ISO/IEC publications transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and
regional publications. Any divergence between any ISO, IEC or ISO/IEC publication and the corresponding
national or regional publication should be clearly indicated in the latter.
5) ISO and IEC do not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. ISO or IEC are not responsible
for any services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or ISO or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts
and members of their technical committees and IEC National Committees or ISO member bodies for any
personal injury, property damage or other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for
costs (including legal fees) and expenses arising out of the publication of, use of, or reliance upon, this ISO/IEC
publication or any other IEC, ISO or ISO/IEC publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this ISO/IEC publication may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO and IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard ISO/IEC 14543-4-3 was prepared by subcommittee 25: Interconnection
of information technology equipment, of ISO/IEC joint technical committee 1: Information

INTRODUCTION
This part of ISO/IEC 14543 specifies the message structure, sequences and protocol of the
application layer for use in the Home Electronic System. Some services are targeted for
communications between devices. Other services are exclusively reserved for management
purposes. Some services can be used for both management and run-time communications.
This standard is applicable for energy management services, mobile access, remote
appliance maintenance services, home healthcare services, home security services and
th th
comfort control. This standard focuses on the application layers (5 layer to 7 layer of the
OSI reference model). This standard specifies a message structure that differs from the
12 message structures specified in ISO/IEC 14543-4-1. This standard allows the use of IP
addressing or MAC addressing, while ISO/IEC 14543-4-1 specifies a different non-IP address
structure. This part depends on routing functions provided by an external IP layer.
ISO/IEC 14543-4-1 uses the routing functions specified in ISO/IEC 14543-4-2. Therefore
Part 4-3 is an alternative to Part 3-1 plus Part 3-2.
ISO/IEC 14543, Information technology – Home Electronic System (HES) architecture,
provides
an introduction to specifications for Home Electronic System (HES):
Part 2-1: Introduction and device modularity
and specifications for three types of HES devices:
Parts 3-x Specifications for network based control of HES Class 1
Parts 4-x Specifications for network enhanced control of HES Class 1
Parts 5-x Specifications for intelligent grouping and resource sharing for HES Class 2
and Class 3

Enhanced control devices of HES Class 1 that claim conformance to this International
Standard shall:
• send, receive and process application layer protocol data units as specified in Clause 6;
• provide application services specified in 6.6 that may be needed by devices for which the
application is intended.
5 Services of the application layer
5.1 Positioning in communications layers
5.1.1 General
The NECD communications processing block is positioned between application and lower
communications layers. This standard provides the specifications of “NECD communications
processing block”. In Figure 1, the shaded area shows the communications middleware block
to be specified.

As Figure 1 shows, the NECD communications middleware block specified in this standard
corresponds to the NECD communications processing block, which is specified as a function
that is independent of layers 1 to 4. The NECD communications processing block sends and
receives a NECD frame specified in Clause 6. There are two kinds of messages: unicast and
broadcast.
Unicast transmission specifies a destination address that is in layer 4 or lower, and transmits
the NECD frame to a specific NECD node. Broadcast transmission specifies a destination
address that is in layer 4 or lower, and transmits the NECD frame to all the NECD nodes in a
subnet. In case of UDP/IP, refer to 5.1.2.
When the transmission system of layer 4 or lower layer corresponds to neither multicasting
nor broadcasting, it shall transmit to all the NECD nodes in a subnet using multiple unicast
transmissions to achieve the equivalence of a broadcast transmission. The destination
address and the method for setting it are not specified, but shall be defined for every lower
communications layer.
Security is not specified in the NECD communications processing block. Security standard
technologies in layer 4 or lower can be applied as necessary.
5.1.2 When using UDP in layer 4 and IP in layer 3
When using UDP/IP, the following addresses and ports shall be supported.
Each NECD node has an IP address. The IP address range and acquisition method are not
specified. If NECD frames are transferred by UDP packets, the destination port number of
UDP packets shall be 3 610. The source port number is not specified. For general broadcast
(simultaneous transmission), NECD frames are mapped on IP multicast packets and
transferred. For IPv4, the destination multicast address value shall be 224.0.23.0. For IPv6,
ff02::1 (all-node multicast address) shall be used.
5.2 Service primitives of the application layer
5.2.1 General
The NECD objects are introduced with two objectives:
• compartmentalisation of the functions of devices connected to the NECD network;
• modularisation of communications between devices to enable application software
developers to utilise NECD communications without having to consider detailed
specifications.
The NECD objects are processed in the NECD communications processing block. Control
content exchanged in communications can be classified into those relating to functions unique
to each device and those relating to data profiling other than the functions unique to each
device. In NECD, all of these are specified as NECD objects, and control and data exchange
are achieved to enable their manipulation.
Each NECD object has some properties. The various unique functions possessed by an
NECD node are represented as NECD properties. Devices are operated by reading or writing
the NECD properties of the NECD object in the relevant NECD node.
NECD objects are defined by the following specifications: object type (codes are specified in
6.5 as NOJ); the properties possessed by each object (codes are specified in 6.8 as NPC);
and the services for those properties (codes are specified in 6.6 as NSV).
NOTE It is assumed that each NECD node would have more than one NECD object of the same type (e.g., two
human detection sensor objects in the same node), and that identification could be performed by stipulating a
specific code.
