LoggedInProfiles contains a list of logged (local and via OPC UA) in user profiles at the machine.

ProcessingCategories contains the list of processing categories, which group together processes that the machine is capable of performing. At least one process from each category can be executed by the machine, allowing higher-level systems to identify the capabilities of the machine. However, these processing categories may not be sufficient for a tooling audit, as they provide a general overview rather than detailed, specific process capabilities.

Note: VDMA Specification 24124 contains a list of standardized Processing Categories.
