C.4 PE State Model

PROFIenergy defines a basic state model. The state model determines the possible modes of a device regarding energy consumption. The state model also determines the possible changes in energy consumption as state transitions. Figure 14 shows the PROFIenergy state model.

Each PE mode is identified by the PE Mode_ID. Table 71 gives a brief description of the modes defined by the basic state model and their PE Mode_ID. Note the mode PE_power_off is not part of the basic state model. For an in-depth description of the state model, especially the constraints and possible state transitions, refer to [PE CAP].

The state transition modes do not have a distinctive PE Mode_ID, but are identified by differing source Mode_ID and the destination Mode_ID. When in a non-transition state, the source Mode_ID and the destination Mode_ID are identical.
