8.9 ID device
ID devices come in two forms: input only and both input and output. An input device could be used to get
identification of a work piece. The read data could include information on how the tightening should be
performed. The identification could also be used to identify the result data.
An ID device, which can be written, can be used to store crucial data (status, final torque etc.) along with
the work piece. This can then later be read in, for example, a repair station.
See chapter: Add a device for how to add an ID device.
