FIELD DEVICE INTEGRATION (FDI ) –

Part 103-1: Profiles – PROFIBUS

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international
co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and
in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports,
Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their
preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with
may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for
Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between
any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent
rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
IEC 62769-103-1 has been prepared by subcommittee 65E: Devices and integration in
enterprise systems, of IEC technical committee 65: Industrial-process measurement, control
and automation. It is an International Standard.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2020. This edition
constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous
edition:
a) added DEVICE_ID to the ProfibusIdentificationType and namespace to Annex A and
Annex B;
b) added mapping from PB standard parameters to PA DIM.

related profile definitions are referred therein.
The string format shall be hexadecimal starting with 0x, e.g. ‘0x3D00’.

5.2.4 Protocol version information
IEC 62769-4 defines an element type named InterfaceT for the Catalog XML schema. The
element type InterfaceT contains an element named Version which is supposed to provide
version information about the applied communication protocol profile. The value has to follow
the IEC 62769-4 defined version information schema defined in the element type VersionT.
Table 5 describes how to apply the currently known protocol versions defined by the non-profit
consortium PROFIBUS & PROFINET International. The general rule is to apply the value “0” for
parts of the version information according to IEC 62769-4 that are not used in currently known
protocol versions.

minor and built numbers are set to “0”.
b
The currently known PROFIBUS PA profile numbers are considered to provide
major and minor version information. Leading zeros are not considered in version
value evaluation since only the actual decimal values are relevant.

5.3 Associating a Package with a device
5.3.1 Device type identification mapping ®
The purpose of device type identification mapping is to enable FDI host systems to compare ®
the scan result against the topology representation in the Information Model. FDI host systems ®
shall also be enabled to determine the FDI Device Package that fits for a device entry ®
contained in the scan result. This will enable the user of an FDI host system to synchronize
the Information Model with the actual installation.
The Communication Server implemented scan service (defined in 5.5.1.7) provides the scan
result through an XML document (the schema is defined in Clause A.6).
The Gateway implemented scan service (defined in 5.5.2.7) provides the scan result by means
of the Information Model that contains data structures created from EDD content as specified
in 5.5.2.7.
Common for both ways of presenting the scan result is that scan results contain device type
identification and device instance identification. ®
FDI host systems comparing the actual network topology configuration against the topology
representation in the Information Model shall be enabled to handle the following situations:
a) The physical Device instance identified at a specific device address is not logically present ®
in the Information Model (as Instance): Enable the FDI Host system to find the appropriate ®
FDI Device package according to the device catalog information.
b) The physical Device instance identified by the device address is logically present in the ®
Information Model (as Instance): Enable the FDI Host system to compare device type
information presented in scan result (see the identification in Clause A.6) and the device
type specific information of the Instance present in the Information Model. ®
The FDI Device package contains device type identification information that can be compared
to scan result based on the Catalog Schema in IEC 62769-4 defining the XML (simple) element
types “DeviceModel” and “Manufacturer”. Both types are used in the (complex) element types
“Protocol” and “RegDeviceType”.
____________
The given table can be considered to be an example only since this document cannot foresee how future protocol
versions will be defined.
IEC 62769-103-1:2023 © IEC 2023 – 11 –
® ®
As a result of the FDI Package deployment the FDI Package information is then present in
the Information Model as the specified FunctionalGroup Identification containing Ident_Number
and Manufacturer_ID (see 5.4.3). The Ident_Number matches with the GSD specified
Ident_Number. Manufacturer_ID is specified through the I&M profile defined VendorID and
DeviceID (see 5.4.3).
If a device is used as a profile device, the Ident_Number returned in the scan result does not
fit to the Ident_Number within the GSD. In this case, DEVICE_ID can be used to identify the ®
FDI Package.
The mapping between different device identification data sources is described in Table 6. Since
scan results provided by the Communication Server or Gateway can convey data that is
produced by the device (firmware) the device type identification mapping shall be supported by ®
providing corresponding data in the FDI Device Package contained Catalog and Information
Model.

5.3.2 Device type revision mapping ®
IEC 62769-4 envisions a concept that allows to determine the compatibility between an FDI
Device Package and a Device. IEC 62769-4 specifies a life cycle management process bearing
on a single version information provided for the entire device.
PROFIBUS related specifications, for example PI Order No.: 2.122:2008 (GSD) and PI Order
No.: 3.502:2009 (I&M) splits the device type revision into software and hardware related
information. The GSD specifies the attributes Hardware_Release and Software_Release. The
I&M specifies HARDWARE_REVISION and SOFTWARE_REVISION. Hardware_Release and
HARDWARE_REVISION shall match always. Software_Release and SOFTWARE_REVISION
shall match always.
The goal of 5.3.2 is to describe the translation rules between PROFIBUS related specifications,
describing their way of providing the version information, and the IEC 62769-4 specified way of
containing the version information that can be compared against the version read from the ®
device. The purpose is to determine the compatibility between an FDI Device Package and a
Device. Figure 1 depicts the problem.

The firmware of a device implements the data exchange interface which shall be described by ®
means of the FDI Device Package content (EDD). A device firmware that implements the
PROFIBUS PA profile enables the reading of the values SOFTWARE_REVISION and
HARDWARE_REVISION. The access to these values shall be described in the EDD contained ®
in the FDI Device Package.
Firmware modifications that affect the firmware implemented data exchange interface shall be ®
reflected in the FDI Device Package. Such firmware and device description modification shall
be visible in the SOFTWARE_REVISION and Software_Release.
Hardware related modifications shall be captured in the HARDWARE_REVISION and
Hardware_Release. Hardware related modifications do not necessarily always require a
firmware update. Thus HARDWARE_REVISION and Hardware_Release cannot be used to ®
determine compatibility between a device and the FDI Device Package. But if a hardware
modification requires firmware modifications both HARDWARE_REVISION and
SOFTWARE_REVISION shall be changed. Hardware_Release and Software_Release shall be
changed accordingly.
The IEC 62769-4 specifies the Catalog schema and an element DeviceVersion which is used
in the element type declaration ListOfSupportedDeviceVersions. The value of the
DeviceVersion shall be compared to the device provided SOFTWARE_REVISION or the GSD ®
Device
provided Software_Release in order to determine the compatibility between an FDI
Package and a device.
The data format for the SOFTWARE_REVISION is a string while the DeviceVersion expects
three numbers for major, minor, and revision. Therefore the following rules apply: If the string
has the format .. this is transferred to major, minor, and revision
(in the same order). references to simple integer number in the string such as ‘1’ or
‘12’, not to other representations such as hexadecimal format (e.g. 0x001A). If
. is provided, this is transferred to major and minor and ‘0’ is used for
revision. If only an is provided, this is transferred to major and ‘0’ is used for minor
and revision. A leading character or a leading character and whitespace shall be ignored. For
a string in any other format the revision number shall not be considered to select the correct ®
FDI package.
5.4 Information Model mapping
5.4.1 ProtocolType definition
The concept to derive PROFIBUS DP and PROFIBUS PA specific Network Types applies to the
protocol type definition.
IEC 62769-103-1:2023 © IEC 2023 – 13 –
The protocol type Profibus_DP shall be used to identify the PROFIBUS DP communication. The
type Profibus_DP is a subtype of the abstract type ProtocolType in IEC 62541-100. Table 7
specifies the allowed values of the ProtocolType attributes for the protocol type Profibus_DP.

The network type Profibus_PA_Network shall be used to build PROFIBUS PA network
topologies. The type Profibus_DP_Network is a subtype of the abstract type NetworkType in
IEC 62541-100. Table 8 specifies the allowed values of the ProtocolType attributes for the
protocol type Profibus_PA.

5.4.3 FunctionalGroup identification definition ®
As defined in IEC 62541-100:2015, 5.3, each device representation in the FDI Server hosted
Information Model shall contain a protocol specific FunctionalGroup named Identification. The
Parameters of this FunctionalGroup are defined for PROFIBUS devices types as follows:

Ident_Number.Topology elements.
5.4.4 ConnectionPoint definition
In order to support different network topology engineering needs related to different physical
layers used by PROFIBUS DP and PROFIBUS PA, two different ConnectionPoint types shall
be defined.
The ConnectionPoint type Profibus_DP shall be used to parameterize PROFIBUS DP network
access points. The ConnectionPoint type Profibus_DP is a subtype of the abstract type
ConnectionPointType defined in IEC 62541-100. Table 11 specifies the allowed values of the
ConnectionPoint attributes for the protocol type Profibus_DP.

The ConnectionPoint type Profibus_DP shall be described by an EDD element contained in a ®
Communication Device related FDI Package that can drive a PROFIBUS DP network. Actual
ConnectionPoint properties are declared by VARIABLE constructs grouped together in a
COLLECTION named ConnectionPoint.
