Each instance of an IWwStateType represents an instance of a machine state. In the simplest case, there is only the Machine Object. The SubUnits Object is used when a machine has multiple states. For example, a CNC machine can have several places where independent jobs are produced.
The Machine state does not summarize the SubUnits states. It does not have to be based on the SubUnits states. It is a decision of the machine manufacturer.
The KPI calculation has to be done individually based on the special machine instance and its states.
The units of the IWwStateType have additional subunits which are defined in Table 15.
