How to deal with LocaleIDs for state-machine state-names?

Hi all

We have once more some problems with unclear specifications and behaviours: various companion specifications define LocalizedText for state machine state names - but with no informations regarding LocaleID.

E.g. MachineryItemState, MachineryOperationMode: defines different state and uses CurrentState[LocalizedText]

E.g. ISA95JobStateDataType uses StateText[LocalizedText]

 

But both of them in addition to the Part-16 doens't provide any information how to deal with localeID. The only one I've found is PackML - but they don't define a invairant locale.

 

What should we define/implement? Are the provided StateNames from the specifications implicit defined as invariant locale?

 

Best regards

Patrick

If a DisplayName is missing for a Node the default DisplayName should be the BrowseName with invariant locale.

Any Server vendor is free to add additional locales for LocalizedText values.
