ComponentNode

Note: There is a newer version of this specification see VEC 2.1.0

A ComponentNode is a node where an electrological component is located. It is a representative for an element in the electric system, e.g. an actuator, a sensor, an ECU. In this way it is quite similar to a NetworkNode and may even reference the corresponding NetworkNode in this case. However, a ComponentNode is more likely to be used as a representative of an inliner or a splice. Moreover, a ComponentNode can define childNodes in order to describe its internal structure.

Attributes

Name Type Mult. Description Owning Classifier
identification String 1

Specifies a unique identification of the ComponentNode. The identification is guaranteed to be unique within the ConnectionSpecification.

ComponentNode
abbreviation LocalizedString 0..*

Room for a short name of the ComponentNode.

ComponentNode
componentNodeType ComponentNodeType 0..1

Specifies the type of the ComponentNode.

ComponentNode
