OPC Unified Architecture -- Part 9: Alarms and conditions (IEC 62541-9:2015)

This part of IEC 62541 specifies the representation of Alarms and Conditions in the OPC
Unified Architecture. Included is the Information Model representation of Alarms and
Conditions in the OPC UA address space.

OPC Unified Architecture - Teil 9: Alarme und Zustände (IEC 62541-9:2015)

Architecture unifiée OPC - Partie 9: Alarmes et conditions (IEC 62541-9:2015)

L'IEC 62541-9:2015 spécifie la représentation des Alarms (alarmes) et des Conditions dans l'architecture unifiée OPC, y compris la représentation du Information Model (modèle d'informations) relative aux Alarms et Conditions dans l'espace d'adresses d'OPC UA. Cette deuxième édition annule et remplace la première édition parue en 2012. Elle constitue une révision technique. Cette édition inclut les modifications suivantes:
- ajout d'une section pour décrire le comportement attendu pour les serveurs A&C et le modèle d'informations associé en cas de redondance ou de défauts de communication;
- modification du DialogConditionType afin qu'il ne soit pas abstrait;
- mise à jour de la méthode ConditionRefresh pour permettre l'utilisation des NodeIds bien connus associés aux types pour MethodId et ConditionId;
- ExclusiveLimitStateMachineType et ShelvedStatemachineType déclarés être des sous-types de FinitStateMachineType, et non de StateMachineType.

Enotna arhitektura OPC - 9. del: Alarmi in pogoji (IEC 62541-9:2015)

Ta del standarda IEC 62541 določa upodobitev alarmov in pogojev v enotni arhitekturi OPC. Vključena je predstavitev informacijskega modela alarmov in pogojev v naslovnem prostoru OPC UA.
