The VisionMachineIdentificationType contains the identification and nameplate information that can be used to identify an instance as a “Machine”. This ObjectType is a subtype of the MachineIdentificationType defined in OPC 40001-1 Machinery Companion Specification. It is formally defined in Table 12. This ObjectType identifies the whole vision system and can be used for all components that are machines themselves.
