10 RO 0x5100
Data Type: Unsigned32
Manufacturer identification number, used by an
interface device or host to locate the DD file for
the resource. All manufacturer identification
numbers are maintained by the Fieldbus
Foundation. A host usually will have a base
directory for DD files. In this directory is a
subdirectory for each manufacturer id. In each
manufacturer id subdirectory is a directory for
each device type made by that manufacturer.
The device type directories contain files named
by combining the device revision for the
particular device type with the revision of the
device description. The manufacturer id for
Fisher is 0x005100.

the resource block, used by an interface device
to locate the DD file for the resource.
DD Revision

Varies with
release
Data Type: Unsigned8
The minimum revision of the device description
(DD) than can be used with the device revision
of the instrument. Used by the interface device
to prevent the use of DDs that are incompatible
with the firmware in the instrument.
