AS - OS communication
For operator control and monitoring, signal exchange over the inputs/outputs of the "FB_JOB"
takes place between the AS and the OS. ALARM_8P blocks are used to implement data
communication for operational / fault messages.
The scripts used in the OS are only for display / input / message control purposes in the
faceplate. Job management is using the "FB_JOB" block only.
AS-IT system communication
Data exchange between the AS and an IT system can take place either directly over the inputs
and outputs of the "FB_JOB" block, or using OS Tag Management. Separate "IT_..." inputs
and outputs are available at the "FB_JOB" block for data communication.
