DEX (D012):— item_identification

The following sections provide an unambiguous ISO 10303-239 PLCS specification on how the Item Identification DEX shall be instantiated, interpreted and tested. The Item Identification DEX specification is defined using PLCS Templates and PLCS Reference Data.

This description may be further tailored by specific parties by extending the Reference Data defined in the PLCS Reference Data Library.

A description of templates and the syntax for the instantiation path is provided in the Templates Help/Information section.

A summary of how this data is represented in PLCS is provided in Figure 20, and is expanded in subsequent sections.

Detailed ISO 10303-239 Representation

Message

Information should be packaged as a message which is then sent to the recipient. Message containing one or more items is represented as an instance of Message in ISO 10303-239 PLCS. Instantiation of Message is done using the template representing_message. The instantiation of representing_message shall follow the rules defined in template table: Template #1(Figure 21) below.

The following message meta data and content data may be assigned to the Message:
