6.3.1.6 Submodule

6.3.1.6.1 IPnSubmoduleType

The properties GSDName and GSDDescription must contain the data from the GSD, as described in the mapping table provided for the subtypes IPnRealSubmoduleType and IPnExpectedSubmoduleType.

6.3.1.6.2 IPnRealSubmoduleType

The BrowseName of a sub module object instance shall be the content of the Subslot variable in hexadecimal number string format (e.g. 0x8001).

If the IM component is provided, it must contain the data in accordance with the I&M0FilterDataSubmodule block (See [PN TAD] – Identification & Maintenance).

The server can provide diagnosis data with the Diagnosis variable or by sending PnDiagnosisAlarmType events. The diagnosis data at the real submodule object includes only the diagnosis information of the real submodule. An OPC UA Server might provide instances of the PnDiagnosisAlarmType as objects under the Alarms object.

An IsPnInterface reference exists if the submodule is an interface submodule. See section 6.3.2.13 also.

An IsPnPort reference exists if the submodule is a port submodule. It points to the PnPortType object. See section 6.3.2.14 also.
