ÖVE/ÖNORM EN 61804-3

This part of 61804 specifies the Electronic Device Description Language (EDDL) technology, which enables the integration of real product details using the tools of the engineering life cycle. This standard specifies EDDL as a generic language for describing the properties of automation system components. EDDL is capable of describing - device parameters and their dependencies; - device functions, for example, simulation mode, calibration; - graphical representations, for example, menus; - interactions with control devices; - graphical representations: - enhanced user interface; - graphing system. - persistent data store. EDDL is to be used to create Electronic Device Description (EDD). This EDD is used with appropriate tools to generate interpretative code to support parameter handling, operation, and monitoring of automation system components such as remote I/Os, controllers, sensors, and programmable controllers. Tool implementation is outside the scope of this standard.
