61158-5-12, and define the externally visible behavior associated
with their transfer. This standard specifies the protocol of the
Type 12 fieldbus application layer, in conformance with the OSI
Basic Reference Model (ISO/IEC 7498-1) and the OSI application layer
structure (ISO/IEC 9545). This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2010 and constitutes a technical revision. The main changes are:

- bug fixes;
