OPC UA for Plastics and Rubber Machinery - Peripheral Devices - Part 5: Moulds
7.7 DeviceMappingNumber
Description:
Unique identifier/address/number for devices of the same type within a local network. Several moulds can be connected to a production machine. In most applications, the production machine must map the connected peripheral devices to internal logical devices and zones in a fixed configuration (e.g. multi-platen moulds with middle block).
The mapping shall be stable after reconnecting the devices and is therefore not possible via IP addresses, which can be assigned dynamically via DHCP. DeviceMappingNumber sets the mapping order of peripheral devices of the same type on the local network and is therefore of type UInt32.
