Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO
member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical
committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has
the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in
liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical
Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted
by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International
Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this part of ISO 15745 may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard ISO 15745-4 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 184, Industrial automation
systems and integration, Subcommittee SC 5, Architecture, communications and integration frameworks.
ISO 15745 consists of the following parts, under the general title Industrial automation systems and integration —
Open systems application integration framework:
 Part 1: Generic reference description
 Part 2: Reference description for ISO 11898-based control systems
 Part 3: Reference description for IEC 61158-based control systems
 Part 4: Reference description for Ethernet-based control systems
Introduction
The application integration framework (AIF) described in ISO 15745 defines elements and rules that facilitate:
 the systematic organization and representation of the application integration requirements using integration
models;
 the development of interface specifications in the form of application interoperability profiles (AIPs) that enable
both the selection of suitable resources and the documentation of the "as built" application.
ISO 15745-1 defines the generic elements and rules for describing integration models and AIPs, together with their
component profiles - process profiles, information exchange profiles, and resource profiles. The context of ISO
15745 and a structural overview of the constituents of an AIP are given in Figure 1 of ISO 15745-1:2003.
This part of ISO 15745 extends the generic AIF described in ISO 15745-1 by defining the technology specific
elements and rules for describing both communication network profiles and the communication related aspects of
1 2 3 4
device profiles specific to Ethernet -based control systems (ADS-net , FL-net and EtherNet/IP™ ). EtherNet/IP™
technology uses a profile of IEC 61158 which is specified in IEC 61784-1.
In particular, this part of ISO 15745 describes technology specific profile templates for the device profile and the
communication network profile. Within an AIP, a device profile instance or a communication network profile
instance is part of the resource profile defined in ISO 15745-1. The device profile and the communication network
profile XML instance files are included in a resource profile XML instance using the ProfileHandle_DataType as
specified in ISO 15745-1:2003, 7.2.5.
AIFs specified using the elements and rules of ISO 1
