The category is a value that gives further meta information w.r.t. to the class of the element. It affects the expected existence of attributes and the applicability of constraints.
Note: The category is not identical to the semantic definition (IHasSemantics) of an element. The category e.g. could denote that the element is a measurement value whereas the semantic definition of the element would denote that it is the measured temperature.
Checksum to be used to determine if an Referable (including its aggregated child elements) has changed.
The checksum is calculated by the user's tool environment. The checksum has no semantic meaning for an asset administration shell model and there is no requirement for asset administration shell tools to manage the checksum
Description or comments on the element.
The description can be provided in several languages.
If no description is defined, then the definition of the concept description that defines the semantics of the element is used.
Additional information can be provided, e.g., if the element is qualified and which qualifier types can be expected in which context or which additional data specification templates are provided.
Display name. Can be provided in several languages.
If no display name is defined in the language requested by the application, then the display name is selected in the following order if available:
Embedded data specification.
Describes whether the entity is a co-managed entity or a self-managed entity.
An extension of the element.
Global identifier of the asset the entity is representing.
Note: This is a global reference.
In case of identifiables this attribute is a short name of the element. In case of referable this ID is an identifying string of the element within its name space.
Note: In case the element is a property and the property has a semantic definition (semanticId) conformant to IEC61360 the idShort is typically identical to the short name in English.
Additional qualification of a qualifiable element.
Constraint AASd-021:
Every qualifiable can only have one qualifier with the same
type.
Identifier of the semantic definition of the element. It is called semantic ID of the element or also main semantic ID of the element.
Note: It is recommended to use a global reference.
Reference to a specific asset ID representing a supplementary identifier of the asset represented by the Asset Administration Shell.
Describes statements applicable to the entity by a set of submodel elements, typically with a qualified value.
Identifier of a supplemental semantic definition of the element. It is called supplemental semantic ID of the element.
Note: It is recommended to use a global reference.

Generated using TypeDoc
An entity is a submodel element that is used to model entities.
Constraint
AASd-014: Either the attribute globalAssetId or specificAssetId of an Entity must be set if entityType is set to SelfManagedEntity. They are not existing otherwise.
