The Fieldbus Application Layer (FAL) provides user programs with a means to access the fieldbus communication environment. In this respect, the FAL can be considered a window between corresponding application programs.
This part of IEC 61158 provides the common elements for basic time-critical and non-timecritical
messaging communications between application programs in an automation environment as well as material specific to the Type 21 protocol. The term "time-critical" is used to represent the presence of a time-window within which one or more specified actions are required to be completed with some defined level of certainty. Failure to complete specified actions within the time window risks failure of the applications requesting the actions, with attendant risk to equipment, plant, and possibly human life.
