7.4 Profiles and Facets
Profiles are named groupings of Conformance Units. Facets are Profiles that will be combined with other Facets or Profiles to define the complete functionality of an OPC UA Server or Client. The following tables specify the Profiles and Facets available for components (physical or virtual) that implement the OPEN-SCS PSS specification.
Some Conformance Units. Facets and Profiles may not be implemented by all conformant products. Such optional functionality is indicated in the Mandatory/Optional columns in the tables in this clause. If a product chooses to implement functionality indicated as optional, it must be implemented to conform to the chosen optional Conformance Unit, Facet or Profile.
