The TTD should be able to provide information about its hard-/software configuration.

5.2.1 Available test procedures on the TTD

A production or quality manager wants to know the available test procedures that can be performed on a TTD in order to schedule upcoming test-jobs. The TTD delivers a list of test procedures. Each test procedure is characterized by the following properties:

  • TestProcedureId
  • Description
  • ProcedureReferences
  • IsProcedureLicensed
5.2.2 Available exchangeable parts

A production or quality manager wants to know the available exchangeable parts of a TTD in order to schedule upcoming test-jobs or plan maintenance. Exchangeable parts for example are load cells, clamp types, jaw faces and others.

For the identification of an exchangeable part, the following information is provided:

  • Name of the exchangeable part
  • PartId of the exchangeable part (this can be an Id or a serial number of the part)
  • LastCalibrationDate of the device

Additional to the information about the exchangeable part itself the following flags are provided:

  • Mounted indicates if the exchangeable part is currently mounted in the device or not.
  • Traceable indicates if the part is traceable or not. A part is traceable if it has a part id or serial number.
  • MachineReadable indicates if the PartId is machine readable
5.2.3 Installed / AvailableTester Modules

A production or quality manager would like to know which tester modules are installed in a testing device for the purposes of test planning on a dashboard, control station or mobile device. The tester modules can be hardware modules as well as software-modules. Examples are feeding devices, or yarn-break-detectors.

The following information about a tester module are exposed:

  • ModuleName the name of the module.
  • ModuleType the type of the module. E.g. hardware or software.
  • IsInstalled indicates if the module is installed on the TTD or not.
  • Version the version of the soft-/hardware module.
