If the optional FeedbackSignalRequired is present and set to TRUE, the FunctionalEntity requires a feedback signal for all Connections. A feedback signal is represented by the reception of either data or a heartbeat. The following connection types (see 5.5.1) support feedback: bidirectional, unidirectional with heartbeat, unidirectional (if configured as Subscriber), and autonomous subscriber. If FeedbackSignalRequired is missing or set to FALSE, the connection types unidirectional (if configured as Publisher) and autonomous publisher are also supported.
