Function blocks (FB) for process control and Electronic Device Description Language (EDDL) - Part 4: EDD interpretation (IEC 61804-4:2015)

This part of IEC 61804 specifies EDD interpretation for EDD applications and EDDs to support
EDD interoperability. This document is intended to ensure that field device developers use the
EDDL constructs consistently and that the EDD applications have the same interpretations of
the EDD. It supplements the EDDL specification to promote EDDL application interoperability
and improve EDD portability between EDDL applications.

Blocs fonctionnels (FB) pour les procédés industriels et le langage de description électronique de produit (EDDL) - Partie 4: Interprétation EDD (IEC 61804-4:2015)

L'IEC 61804-4:2015 définit l'interprétation EDD pour les applications EDD et les EDD pour assurer l'interopérabilité EDD. Le présent document est destiné à veiller à ce que les développeurs d'appareils de terrain utilisent systématiquement les constructions EDDL et que les applications EDD aient la même interprétation des EDD. Il complète la spécification EDDL pour promouvoir l'interopérabilité de l'application EDDL et améliorer la portabilité EDD entre les applications EDDL. Cette première édition annule et remplace l'IEC TR 61804-4 parue en 2006. Cette édition constitue une révision technique. Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l'édition précédente:
- Alinéas modifiés: Description de données EDDL;
- Programmation avec la METHOD EDDL et utilisation de Builtins;
- Session d'édition;
- Configuration hors ligne et en ligne;
- Description de la communication EDDL;
- et Améliorations de l'alinéa Description de l'interface utilisateur EDDL.

Funkcijski bloki (FB) za nadzor procesov in opisni jezik za elektronske naprave (EDDL) - 4. del: Interpretacija EDD (IEC 61804-4:2015)

Ta del standarda IEC 61804 določa interpretacijo EDD za aplikacije EDD in EDD-je za podporo
interoperabilnosti EDD. Ta dokument zagotavlja, da razvijalci področnih naprav dosledno uporabljajo
konstrukte EDDL in da imajo aplikacije EDD enake interpretacije
EDD-ja. Dopolnjuje specifikacijo EDDL za spodbujanje interoperabilnosti aplikacije EDDL
in izboljšanje prenosljivosti EDD med aplikacijami EDDL.
