Parameter description
7.4.1 Resource Block
The Resource Block contains all the data that clearly identifies the device. It is, so to speak,
the electronic nameplate of the device.
The Resource Block's parameters include, for example, device type, device name, manufac-
turer ID, serial number as well as parameters which affect the behavior of all other Blocks in
the device.
