FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international
co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and
in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports,
Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their
preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with
may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for
Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between
any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent
rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

INTRODUCTION
The development of smart sensors which integrate analogue-to-digital conversion and digital
processing of the captured sensor signal(s) is in progress. A smart sensing unit, which
comprises a smart sensor; a terminal module, to control the smart sensor and perform wireless
communication; and a power supply for the smart sensor and the terminal module, can send
the output data of the smart sensor wirelessly to the outside. Here, the power supply may be a
plug-in power supply, a battery, an energy harvester, or their combination. A smart sensing
network where a large number of smart sensing units are located in manufacturing factories,
offices, and stores has been examined. With this network, environmental monitoring, sensing
operational situations of manufacturing equipment and sensing other various events contribute
to the realization of the following outcomes by analysing the collected sensing data. Namely,
energy saving, improvement in factory productivity such as operation rate, shortening of
production lead time, preventive equipment maintenance, and product quality improvement can
be achieved.
However, as to the three components of the smart sensing unit, namely, smart sensor, terminal
module, and power supply, standardization regarding control schemes to connect the
components mutually and regarding indication of specifications of the components has not been
sufficiently established yet. This issue leads to the present situation, where the development of
each component in the smart sensing unit has not proceeded efficiently. (Figure 1 shows the
block diagram of the components in the smart sensing unit and Figure 2 shows an example of
the detailed block diagram of the smart sensing unit.)

The IEC 60747-19 series aims to address this issue. The IEC 60747-19 series comprises two
parts and its structure is currently conceived as follows:
Part 19-1 – Control scheme of smart sensors
Part 19-2 – Indication of specifications of sensors and power supplies to drive smart sensors
for low power operation
Part 19-1 specifies a control scheme of the smart sensor from the terminal module in the smart
sensing unit. Generally, the manufacturers of sensors have incorporated into the sensors
various parameters and cond
