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

In network communications, as in many fields of engineering, it is a fact that "one size does not fit all." Engineering design is about making the right set of trade-offs, and these trade-offs must balance conflicting requirements such as simplicity, generality, ease of use, richness of features, performance, memory size and usage, scalability, determinism, and robustness. These trade-offs must be made in light of the types of information flow (e.g. periodic, one-tomany, request-reply, events), and the constraints imposed by the application and execution platforms. The Type 15 fieldbus provides two major communication mechanisms that complement each others to satisfy communication requirements in the field of automation: the Client/Server and the Publish/Subscribe paradigms. They can be used concurrently on the same device. Type 15 Client/Server operates in a Client/Server relationship. Its application layer service definitions and protocol specifications are independent of the underlying layers, and have been implemented on a variety of stacks and communication media, including EIA/TIA-232, EIA/TIA-422, EIA/TIA-425, HDLC (ISO 13239), fiber, TCP/IP, Wireless LANs and Radios. Type 15 Publish/Subscribe operates in a Publish/Subscribe relationship. Its application layer service definitions and protocol specifications are independent of the underlying layers and can be configured to provide reliable behaviour and support determinism. The most common stack is UDP/IP. The fieldbus application layer (FAL) provides user programs with a means to access the fieldbus communication environment. In this respect, the FAL can be viewed as a "window between corresponding application programs." This part of IEC 61158 provides common elements for basic time-critical and non-time-critical messaging communications between application programs in an automation environment and material specific to Type 15 fieldbus. The term "time-critical" is used to represent the presence of a time-window, within which one or more specified actions are required to be completed with some defined level of certainty. Failure to complete specified actions within the time window risks failure of the applications requesting the actions, with attendant risk to equipment, plant and possibly human life. This part of IEC 61158 define in an abstract way the externally visible service provided by the Type 15 fieldbus application layer in terms of a) an abstract model for defining application resources (objects) capable of being manipulated by users via the use of the FAL service, b) the primitive actions and events of the service; c) the parameters associated with each primitive action and event, and the form which they take; and d) the interrelationship between these actions and events, and their valid sequences. The purpose of this part of IEC 61158 is to define the services provided to 1) the FAL user at the boundary between the user and the Application Layer of the Fieldbus Reference Model, and 2) Systems Management at the boundary between the Application Layer and Systems Management of the Fieldbus Reference Model. This part of IEC 61158 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). FAL services and protocols are provided by FAL application-entities (AE) contained within the application processes. The FAL AE is composed of a set of object-oriented Application Service Elements (ASEs) and a Layer Management Entity (LME) that manages the AE. The ASEs provide communication services that operate on a set of related application process object (APO) classes. One of the FAL ASEs is a management ASE that provides a common set of services for the management of the instances of FAL classes. Although these services specify, from the perspective of applications, how request and responses are issued and delivered, they do not

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC 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.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC 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 undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any
equipment declared to be in conformity with an IEC Publication.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees 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, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other 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 IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
NOTE  Use of some of the associated protocol types is restricted by their intellectual-property-right holders. In all
cases, the commitment to limited release of intellectual-property-rights made by the holders of those rights permits
a particular data-link layer protocol type to be used with physical layer and application layer protocols in type
combinations as specified explicitly in the IEC 61784 series. Use of the various protocol types in other
combinations may require permission of their respective intellectual-property-right holders.
International Standard IEC 61158-5-15 has been prepared by subcommittee 65C: Industrial
technical committee 65: Industrial-process measurement, control and
networks, of IEC
automation.
This first edition and its companion parts of the IEC 61158-5 subseries cancel and replace
IEC 61158-5:2003. This edition of this part constitutes a technical revision. This part and its
Type 15 companion parts also cancel and replace IEC/PAS 62030, published in 2004.
This edition of IEC 61158-5 includes the following significant changes from the previous
edition:
a) deletion of the former Type 6 fieldbus for lack of market relevance;
b) addition of new types of fieldbuses;

INTRODUCTION
This part of IEC 61158 is one of a series produced to facilitate the interconnection of
automation system components. It is related to other standards in the set as defined by the
“three-layer” fieldbus reference model described in IEC/TR 61158-1.
The application service is provided by the application protocol making use of the services
available from the data-link or other immediately lower layer. This standard defines the
application service characteristics that fieldbus applications and/or system management may
exploit.
Throughout the set of fieldbus standards, the term “service” refers to the abstract capability
provided by one layer of the OSI Basic Reference Model to the layer immediately above.
Thus, the application layer service defined in this standard is a conceptual architectural
service, independent of administrative and implementation divisions.

Part 5-15: Application layer service definition – Type 15 elements

1 Scope
1.1 Overview
In network communications, as in many fields of engineering, it is a fact that “one size does
not fit all.” Engineering design is about making the right set of trade-offs, and these trade-offs
must balance conflicting requirements such as simplicity, generality, ease of use, richness of
features, performance, memory size and usage, scalability, determinism, and robustness.
These trade-offs must be made in light of the types of information flow (e.g. periodic, one-to-
many, request-reply, events), and the constraints imposed by the application and execution
platforms.
The Type 15 fieldbus provides two major communication mechanisms that complement each
others to satisfy communication requirements in the field of automation: the Client/Server and
the Publish/Subscribe paradigms. They can be used concurrently on the same device.
Type 15 Client/Server operates in a Client/Server relationship. Its application layer service
definitions and protocol specifications are independent of the underlying layers, and have
been implemented on a variety of stacks and communication media, including EIA/TIA-232,
EIA/TIA-422, EIA/TIA-425, HDLC (ISO 13239), fiber, TCP/IP, Wireless LANs and Radios.
Type 15 Publish/Subscribe operates in a Publish/Subscribe relationship. Its application layer
service definitions and protocol specifications are independent of the underlying layers and
can be configured to provide reliable behaviour and support determinism. The most common
stack is UDP/IP.
The fieldbus application layer (FAL) provides user programs with a means to access the
fieldbus communication environment. In this respect, the FAL can be viewed as a “window
between corresponding application programs.”
This part of IEC 61158 provides common elements for basic time-critical and non-time-critical
messaging communications between application programs in an automation environment and
material specific to Type 15 fieldbus. The term “time-critical” is used to represent the
presence of a time-window, within which one or more specified actions are required to be
completed with some defined level of certainty. Failure to complete specified actions within
the time window risks failure of the applications requesting the actions, with attendant risk to
equipment, plant and possibly human life.
This part of IEC 61158 define in an abstract way the externally visible service provided by the
Type 15 fieldbus application layer in terms of
a) an abstract model for defining application resources (objects) capable of being
manipulated by users via the use of the FAL service,
b) the primitive actions and events of the service;
c) the parameters associated with each primitive action and event, and the form which they
take; and
d) the interrelationship between these actions and events, and their valid sequences.
The purpose of this part of IEC 61158 is to define the services provided to
1) the FAL user at the boundary between the user and the Application Layer of the Fieldbus
Reference Model, and

---------------------- Page: 12 ----------------------

61158-5-15 © IEC:2007(E) – 9 –
2) Systems Management at the boundary between the Application Layer and Systems
Management of the Fieldbus Reference Model.
This part of IEC 61158 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).
FAL services and protocols are provided by FAL application-entities (AE) contained wi
