The GMSType provides information about the Geometric Measurement System itself. It is the entry point to the OPC UA interface of a Geometric Measurement System. There is a basic structure to the interface. An instance of this type aggregates all information related to one system.
All instances of GMSType have to be referenced from the 3:Machines node defined in OPC 40001-1. At least one instance of GMSType shall be present to qualify for any profile of OPC UA for GMS.
The GMSType is formally defined in Table 12.

GMS GMSType |
Equipment (see 8.6), Identification (see 8.7), Monitoring (see 8.8), Notification (see OPC UA 40501-1) and Production (see 8.9) are instances of the respective types. They are used to thematically assign the structure of the information in the MachineToolType and the GMSType, respectively. ResultManagement is the entry point for the result management.
The components of the GMSType have additional subcomponents that are defined in Table 13.
