Category Title Description
ServerIA StacklightSupports the base functionality defined in the BasicStacklightType.
ServerIA Statistical DataSupports the base functionality defined in the IStatisticsType.
ServerIA CT Base ElementsSupports the CalibrationTargetType and referenced TypeDefinitions in the AddressSpace and at least one instance of CalibrationTargetType or a subtype having the mandatory Identification and CalibrationTargetFeatures subcomponents.
ServerIA CT Reusable Calibration TargetSupports the ReusableCalibrationTargetCategoryType in the AddressSpace and at least one instance of CalibrationTargetType or a subtype having an instance of ReusableCalibrationTargetCategoryType or a subtype as CalibrationTargetCategory.
ServerIA CT Reusable Device Calibration TargetSupports the ReusableDeviceCalibrationTargetCategoryType in the AddressSpace and at least one instance of CalibrationTargetType or a subtype having an instance of ReusableDeviceCalibrationTargetCategoryType or a subtype as CalibrationTargetCategory.
ServerIA CT One-Time Calibration TargetSupports the OneTimeCalibrationTargetCategoryType in the AddressSpace and at least one instance of CalibrationTargetType or a subtype having an instance of OneTimeCalibrationTargetCategoryType or a subtype as CalibrationTargetCategory.
ServerIA CT Dynamic Calibration TargetSupports the DynamicCalibrationTargetCategoryType in the AddressSpace and at least one instance of CalibrationTargetType or a subtype having an instance of DynamicCalibrationTargetCategoryType or a subtype as CalibrationTargetCategory.
ServerIA CT Manufactured TargetSupports at least one instance of CalibrationTargetType or a subtype having OperationalConditions Object and optionally vendor-specific subcomponents and the Identification Object and at least the Manufacturer, Model, and SerialNumber Properties and optionally the other Properties defined for the Identification Object.
ServerIA CT Quality Controlled TargetSupports at least one instance of CalibrationTargetType or a subtype providing the Quality Property.
ServerIA CT Validated TargetSupports at least one instance of CalibrationTargetType or a subtype providing the LastValidationDate Property and optionally the NextValidationDate and CertificateUri Properties.
ServerIA CT Distinct Quantity Value TargetSupports at least one instance of CalibrationTargetType or a subtype having at least one instance of CalibrationValueType or a subtype in its CalibrationTargetFeatures. The instance of CalibrationValueType or a subtype shall have all mandatory Properties and optionally the optional Properties.
ServerIA CT Quantity Range TargetSupports at least one instance of CalibrationTargetType or a subtype having at least one instance of CapacityRangeType or a subtype in its CalibrationTargetFeatures. The instance of CapacityRangeType or a subtype shall have all mandatory Properties and optionally the optional Properties.
ServerIA CT Custom Featured TargetSupports at least one instance of CalibrationTargetType or a subtype having at least one component in its CalibrationTargetFeatures which is not of TypeDefinition CalibrationValueType or CapacityRangeType or one of their subtypes.
ClientIA CT Client BaseThe client can make use of the instances of CalibrationTargetType and its subtypes and can make use of the Manufacturer, Model and SerialNumber and optionally the other Properties of the Identification Object.
ClientIA CT Client CalibrationTargetCategoryThe client can make use of the CalibrationTargetCategory Object of instances of CalibrationTargetType and can distinguish the subtypes defined for the BaseCalibrationTargetCategoryType.
ClientIA CT Client CalibrationTargetFeaturesThe client can make use of all components provided in the CalibrationTargetFeatures Object of instances of CalibrationTargetType. If the component is of type CalibrationValueType or CapacityRangeType, the client shall be capable to interpret the DataTypes and all mandatory and option Properties. If the component is of another type, the client shall at least at least notice the component and use its base features like DisplayName.
ClientIA CT Client Quality MonitoringThe client can make use of the Properties LastValidationDate, NextValidationDate, Quality, and CertificateUri provided by instances of CalibrationTargetType or a subtype.
