Signature
GetReady (
[out] 0:Int32 Status
);The GetReady Method allows an authorized Client to request the system to transition from the Idle state to the Ready state. Internally the system prepares to get started in the next step (e.g. switching on the intermediate circuit). If the internal preparations for this transition are successful, the system will transition from Idle to Ready. If the internal preparations are unsuccessful then the IdleToIdle transition occurs.
In conjunction with the usage of this method, the transient states can be expressed with Substate machines within the Idle state (e.g. the IdleSubstateMachine in 7.13)
