FDL Content: OEM identification
The following table shows the section of the FDL that holds the
OEM
identification
; i.e. the OEM-specific product identification data. The OEM
can use these fields for his purpose.
Note:
Usage of these data fields by the OEM is optional. If used, the OEM
has to define appropriate values for this data. The application
firmware can (indirectly) read this data from the FDL during start-up
of the device by means of the
Device Data Provider Get
service offered by the communication firmware.

This bit field enables the evaluation of the OEM

The COM FW does not evaluate the
OEM identification data. The APP FW
can read (and use) this data via
Device Data Provider Get
service of the COM FW.
All other
values
reserved
Note
: Current COM firmware versions do not
evaluate these parameters anyway, but we still
advise you to set this field to
0
in order to avoid
conflicts with upcoming firmware versions that
might be able to evaluate this section.
