To be of real value, this document should not be static but should be subject to periodic review. Toward this end, the Society welcomes all

6、s aware of the growing need for attention to the metric system of units in general, and the International System of Units (SI) in particular, in the preparation of instrumentation standards. The Department is further aware of the benefits to USA users of ISA standards of incorporating suitable refer
7、ences to the SI (and the metric system) in their business and professional dealings with other countries. Toward this end, this Department will endeavor to introduce SI-acceptable metric units in all new and revised standards, recommended practices, and technical reports to the greatest extent possi
8、ble.

More detail description of objects and
12、related services are provided in subsequent chapters. The FDT objects may be executed all on one platform or in a distributed system. For data exchange and for the interaction between objects, the data types as defined in 0 are used. The concrete implementation of these data types is defined in the
13、IEC 62453-4z documents describing the mapping to specific implementation technologies. Table 1 Description of FDT objects Object Description Frame Application The Frame Application is a logical object to represent an environment like an engineering system or a standalone tool (see 4.2.2). It control
14、s the lifetime of DTM-instances within the project. A Frame Application may handle several projects Project The Project belongs to the Frame Application. The Project is a logical object describing the management of device-instances. It controls the lifetime and dataset of device-instances within a F
15、rame Application. FDT does not define any services for the Project, since it is a pure Frame Application internal object IEC 1071/09 ANSI/ISA-62453-2 (103.00.02)-2011 - 20 - Object Description HostChannel A HostChannel belongs to the Frame Application. The HostChannel is a logical object representin
16、g a part of a function of a host system, such as DCS or PLC. It is required when additional information for the processing of device I/O data is needed, e.g. if DTM or BTM data refers to more than one I/O value. For example one Octet often is used to group the state values of eight digital I/O point
17、s. In these applications, the HostChannel object provides an association between contents of the channel data and individual process I/O points. To make the cyclic I/O data available within a Frame Application, there shall be an association between the I/O function blocks and the process values of a
18、 device. The inputs and outputs of I/O function blocks are represented by HostChannels, the process value is represented by a Channel. The association between HostChannel and Channel is called channel assignment. FDT does not define any services for the Host Channel, since it is a pure Frame Applica
19、tion internal object DTM A DTM is a software component containing the device specific application software. It encapsulates all devicespecific data, functions and business rules. A DTM is generally not stand-alone executable. It needs a Frame Application (see 4.2.2) that acts as the runtime environm
20、ent. A DTM is typically developed by the device manufacturer and shipped together with the devices. It depends on the software design of the DTM, whether it can be used for one specific device type or a group of different device types or a device type family. Each device installed on a plant is repr
21、esented by a DTM object. Therefore one or several DTM objects are needed to handle the different devices. The DTMs are installed in the system, so that the system can be dynamically extended by installing new DTMs for new devices. A DTM may represent different types of devices, e.g. field devices, c
22、ommunication devices or gateway devices. (see 4.2.3) BTM A BTM (see 4.2.3.6) is used to represent flexible software objects within a device, like function blocks. These software blocks are more flexible than software modules, for instance they may be moved between devices. Also a protocol may requir
23、e modeling of device structures as blocks. Presentation Presentation objects (see 4.2.4) represent a (visual) user interface. The Presentation object belongs to the DTM, to the BTM or to the Channel. Channel Channel-Object could behave in three ways: As a Communication-Channel, a Process-Channel and
24、 a combination of both (see 4.2.5). All the associations shown in Figure 2 above are explained in Table 2 below.

25、rame Application there has to be an association between the I/O function blocks and the process values of a device.

The Frame Application (project) is responsible for handling this association 4.2.2 Frame Application (FA) The Frame Application is the runtime environment for the DTMs. It provides the services described
37、 in 7.7 which may be used by the hosted DTMs. If the Frame Application has built-in communication capabilities, then it is able to provide Communication Channels (see 4.2.5.3) which provide the services to access the fieldbus. In this case it has full control over communication and is able perform l
38、ow-level actions such as monitoring or filtering. Frame Applications without build-in communication capabilities are using Communication DTMs (see 4.2.3.2). Figure 3 shows the relation between the Frame Application and Communication Channel object. ANSI/ISA-62453-2 (103.00.02)-2011 - 23 - F r a m e

41、etary bus systems. 4.2.3 Device Type Manager (DTM) 4.2.3.1 DTM Overview The DTM provides the services described in 7.2 (see Figure 4). From a Frame Applications point of view, all management and task-related interactions with the device functionality are available via these services. D T MD T M s e
42、r v i c e s Figure 4 Device Type Manager (DTM) A DTM may represent the device structure with data type net:DtmDeviceInstanceTopology. This information may be retrieved by service GetActiveTypeInfo (see 7.2.3.4). The structure of the device may be described by a list of net:Module. Each module may ha
43、ve a number of properties, including configuration data, Process Channels and Communication Channels. A DTM exposes a list of supported device types with the data type fdt:DtmDeviceTypes (see 4.7.1). Different types of devices, for example, communication devices, field devices, modules, gateways or
44、blocks are represented by different types of DTMs. 4.2.3.2 Communication DTM (COMM-DTM) A Communication DTM is a special type of DTM containing the application software for specific communication hardware. For example, it may support configuration settings like baud -rate, start and stop bits, etc.
