The TaskControlTyperepresents instances of task controls of a controller and is formally defined in Table 44.
The task control describes an execution engine that loads and runs task programs. One task runs one task program at the time. The system should instantiate the maximum allowed number of task controls.

The ComponentNameproperty provides a user writeable name provided by the vendor, integrator or user of the device.
The ComponentNameof the TaskControlTypeprovides a customer given identifier for the task control or a default name given by the vendor. This property is derived from ComponentType defined in OPC UA DI.

Description of ParameterSetof TaskControlType:
- Variable TaskProgramName: The TaskProgramNamevariable provides a customer given identifier for the task program.
- Variable TaskProgramLoaded: The TaskProgramLoadedvariable is TRUE if a task program is loaded in the task control, FALSE otherwise.
- Variable ExecutionMode: The ExecutionModevariable tells how the task control executes the task program.
