Hi,

Hi,

ALE Distribution Unit (UPS)

Definition

An ALE distribution unit comprises exactly one original packet which may have one or more correction packets

Structure

The ALE distribution unit has the following features:

• It contains the current object list for complete posting.

• The object list and status of the ALE distribution unit are determined dynamically from the original packet and correction packets.

• Changes to the ALE distribution unit are assigned to the current packet (original packet or correction packet).

Example

Distribution unit Alpha-001 contains data for a pump. The filters were forgotten in the original packet, so the pump cannot be posted consistently. The filters are sent subsequently in a correction packet. The object list of the ALE distribution unit is corrected, and the filter is added.
