Industrial communication networks - Fieldbus specifications - Part 3-17: Data-link layer service definition - Type 17 elements

This part of IEC 61158 provides common elements for basic time-critical messaging communications between devices in an automation environment. 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 standard defines in an abstract way the externally visible service provided by the Type 17 fieldbus data-link Layer in terms of a) the primitive actions and events of the service; b) the parameters associated with each primitive action and event, and the form which they take; and c) the interrelationship between these actions and events, and their valid sequences. The purpose of this standard is to define the services provided to the Type 17 fieldbus application layer at the boundary between the application and datalink layers of the fieldbus reference model, and systems management at the boundary between the data-link layer and systems management of the fieldbus reference model; specifications The principal objective of this standard is to specify the characteristics of conceptual data-link layer services suitable for time-critical communications, and thus supplement the OSI Basic Reference Model in guiding the development of data-link protocols for time-critical communications. A secondary objective is to provide migration paths from previously-existing industrial communications protocols. This specification may be used as the basis for formal DL-Programming-Interfaces. Nevertheless, it is not a formal programming interface, and any such interface will need to address implementation issues not covered by this specification, including a) the sizes and octet ordering of various multi-octet service parameters, and b) the correlation of paired request and confirm, or indication and response, primitives. Conformance This standard does not specify individual implementations or products, nor does it constrain the implementations of data-link entities within industrial automation systems. There is no conformance of equipment to this data-link layer service definition standard. Instead, conformance is achieved through implementation of the corresponding data-link protocol that fulfills the Type 17 data-link layer services defined in this standard.

La CEI 61158-3-17:2007 définit de manière abstraite les services visibles de l'extérieur fournis par la couche de liaison de données de bus de terrain Type 17 en termes:
- des actions et événements primitifs de service;
- des paramètres associés à chaque action primitive et événement primitif, et la forme qu'ils prennent;
- de l'interrelation entre ces actions et événements, et leurs séquences valides. Cette première édition et ses parties associées de la sous-série de la CEI 61158-3 annulent et remplacent la CEI 61158-3:2003. L'édition de cette partie constitue un ajout technique. La présente partie et ses parties associées Type 17 annulent et remplacent aussi la CEI/PAS 62405 publiée en 2005. Cette édition inclut les changements suivants:
- suppression du précédent bus de terrain de Type 6 et du réceptacle (placeholder) pour une couche de liaison de données de bus de terrain de Type 5 en raison d'un manque de pertinence commerciale;
- ajout de nouveaux types de bus de terrain;
- division de cette partie en plusieurs parties numérotées 3-1, 3-2, ...., 3-19. La présente version bilingue (2013-07) correspond à la version anglaise monolingue publiée en 2007-12.

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.
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 61158-3-17 has been prepared by subcommittee 65C: Industrial
networks, of IEC technical committee 65: Industrial-process measurement, control and
automation.
This first edition and its companion parts of the IEC 61158-3 subseries cancel and replace
IEC 61158-3:2003. This edition of this part constitutes a technical addition. This part and its
Type 17 companion parts also replace IEC/PAS 62405, published in 2005.
This edition includes the following significant changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) deletion of the former Type 6 fieldbus, and the placeholder for a Type 5 fieldbus data-link
layer, for lack of market relevance;
b) addition of new types of fieldbuses;
c) division of this part into multiple parts numbered 3-1, 3-2, …, 3-19.
This edition of this part constitutes an editorial revision.

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.
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 data-link layer service defined in this standard is a conceptual architectural service,
independent of administrative and implementation divisions.

Part 3-17: Data-link layer service definition – Type 17 elements


1 Scope
This part of IEC 61158 provides common elements for basic time-critical messaging
communications between devices in an automation environment. 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 standard defines in an abstract way the externally visible service provided by the Type
17 fieldbus data-link Layer in terms of
a) the primitive actions and events of the service;
b) the parameters associated with each primitive action and event, and the form which they
take; and
c) the interrelationship between these actions and events, and their valid sequences.
The purpose of this standard is to define the services provided to
• the Type 17 fieldbus application layer at the boundary between the application and data-
link layers of the fieldbus reference model, and
• systems management at the boundary between the data-link layer and systems
management of the fieldbus reference model;
• specifications
The principal objective of this standard is to specify the characteristics of conceptual data-link
layer services suitable for time-critical communications, and thus supplement the OSI Basic
Reference Model in guiding the development of data-link protocols for time-critical
communications. A secondary objective is to provide migration paths from previously-existing
industrial communications protocols.
This specification may be used as the basis for formal DL-Programming-Interfaces.
Nevertheless, it is not a formal programming interface, and any such interface will need to
address implementation issues not covered by this specification, including
a) the sizes and octet ordering of various multi-octet service parameters, and
b) the correlation of paired request and confirm, or indication and response, primitives.
• Conformance
This standard does not specify individual implementations or products, nor does it constrain
the implementations of data-link entities within industrial automation systems.
There is no conformance of equipment to this data-link layer service definition standard.
Instead, conformance is achieved through implementation of the corresponding data-link
protocol that fulfills the Type 17 data-link layer services defined in this standard.
