Full Description

This part of IEC 61158 provides the common elements for basic time-critical messaging communications between devices in an automation environment. The term "time-critical" in this context means the prioritized full-duplex collision-free time-deterministic communication, of which one or more specified actions are required to be completed with some defined level of certainty. Failure to complete specified actions within the required time risks the failure of the applications requesting the actions, with attendant risk to equipment, plant, and possibly human life.
