An instance of this Service Interface Function Block (SIFB) type
implements the fbmgt2
management scheme defined in
subclause 6.5 of the Compliance Profile
for Feasibility Demonstrations. Its service sequences are the same
as for the DEV_MGR
SIFB
type. However, its RQST
input and RESP
output are of types MGT_REQ
and MGT_RSP
, respectively,
which lend themselves to more efficient encodings than the STRING
-encoded XML RQST
input and RESP
output of
the DEV_MGR
SIFB type. Additionally, the USTRING
type of this SIFB type's
DST
input provides just as efficient an encoding for the
7-bit US-ASCII character set as the STRING
type of the
corresponding input of the DEV_MGR
type, while retaining
the ability to encode multi-byte character sets.
An instance of this type is automatically substituted for an instance
of the DEV_MGR
type as the MGR
block of a DM_KRNL
instance when the MGR_ID
of the enclosing remote Device, e.g., an instance of RMT_DEV
or FRAME_DEVICE
,
specifies the fbmgt2
protocol, e.g., MGR_ID
:= "fbmgt2://192.168.2.1:61499"
.
