The ScaleSystemType defines the structure of an Object of the ScaleSystemType. Figure 15 shows the hierarchical structure and details of the composition. It is formally defined in Table 16.
An Object of the ScaleSystemType represents a scale system and contains one or more scales. The VisionSystemType defines a general communication interface for a scale system and is the entrypoint for clients. This interface makes it possible to interact with this system independent of the knowledge of the internal structure and the underlying processes of the scale system.
The system is modeled with a finite state machine and contains primary information about the state and the status of the system. It optionally can also contain the objects ProductionPreset and ProductionOutput.

A scale system can contain one ore more scales. The scales must be a subtype of the ScaleDeviceType but must not be of the same type. The ScaleDeviceType is described in section 8.4.
Policy defines the legal guidelines that apply for the scale or need to be complied by the scale.
ProcessStateId contains a relating identification for the occurring ProcessStateMessage.
ProcessStateMessage contains the message of the current overall state of the scale.
ProductionPreset contains the production presets. See section 8.7 for the complete definition of the ProductionPresetType.
ProductionOutput defines the overall statistic for the scale production.
The modules (subdevices) of a scale system are aggregated in the SubDevices Object (see section 7.3 and OPC 10000-100).
The components of the ScaleSystemType have additional references which are defined inTable 17.
