The CSPP sections consist of one or more CSPP parts. Figure 52 shows the structure image in a CSPP section.

Type of CSPP parts included in the CSPP sections varies depending on the CSPP sections. Type of CSPP parts included in the FILE section is shown in Table 52, type of CSPP parts included in the DEVICE section is shown in Table 53, type of CSPP parts included in the COMM_IF section is shown in Table 54, and type of CSPP parts included in the BLOCK section is shown in Table 55.

Table 5 5 – CSPP Parts Included in BLOCK Section
CSPP part type |
Information to be described |
Number of parts |
BLOCK_INFO |
- Machine data identification |
1 part |
BLOCK_MEMORY |
- Variable machine data acquired from the machine (e.g. Current value, measurement time) |
0 or more parts |
BLOCK_PARAM |
- Machine-specific machine data not acquired from the machine (e.g. Accuracy, collection cycle) |
0 or more parts |

0 or more parts |
There are COMM_IF_VARIABLE part and COMM_IF_CONFIGURATION part as CSPP parts managing the machine information. Machine information for realtime monitor is described in the COMM_IF_VARIABLE part and machine information for general purpose is described in the COMM_IF_CONFIGURATION part. As the information allowed for the COMM_IF_VARIABLE part is limited for realtime monitor, description is easy but the application is limited. On the other hand, there is less restrictions on the description for the COMM_IF_CONFIGURATION part where the machine information for the general purpose applications can be described. For example, a window display layout includes a monitoring window for machine information in the COMM_IF_VARIABLE part and a machine parameter read/write window for machine information in the COMM_IF_CONFIGURATION part.
