ÖNORM EN 29506-4

This part of ISO/IEC 9506 extends the concepts and principles defined in ISO/IEC 9506-1 and ISO/IEC 9506-2. This part of ISO/IEC 9506, as a companion Standard to Manufacturing Message Specification, describes the semantics of numerically controlled manufacturing devices and equipment. Specifically, this part of ISO/IEC 9506 a) describes the use of Manufacturing Message Specification services in NC specific applications, b) describes the model of an NC device in terms of its application specific functions and how these functions map onto the attributes of a virtual manufacturing device (VMD), c) provides the NC specific syntax for those MMS Services which are applicable to NC Operations, and which also allow companion standard specific parameters, d) defines "standardized" names for NC specific objects, e) defines NC specific conformance in conjunction with the MMS service and parameter conformance building blocks (CBBs) required. Furthermore, it should be noted that in addition to this part of ISO/IEC 9506, within ISO and IEC other companion standards have been developed or such work is in progress, in the application areas of robots and robotic systems, programmable control systems, and process control systems.
