WG decision: We will bring it into V1.01 as mandatory device method.

Refer to the specification draft version from Tobias : the specification already includes the change and the nodeset file needs to be updated

@mlang : Since the BacktoBox is a system command (131) as per the specification, could you please clarify if the BacktoBox is to be realized as a separate Method rather than re-using the existing method "SystemCommand"?

@dyse : Since the SystemCommands 128 "Device reset", 129 "Application reset" and 130 "Restore factory settings" are modelled as additional methods, we should do the same with Cmd 131 "Back-to-box".
@'Joachim Uffelmann' :
May we have to discuss why OPC UA defines "Device reset" and "Restore factory settings" as mandatory, whereby these are optional in the IO-Link SMI document.

Method Back to box added and described in " OPC 30120 - UA Companion Specification for IO-Link 1.01.00 Draft V00.02_TG.docx"

Merged into the main document version : OPC 30120 - UA Companion Specification for IO-Link 1.01.00 Draft V00.02

"May we have to discuss why OPC UA defines "Device reset" and "Restore factory settings" as mandatory, whereby these are optional in the IO-Link SMI document."
WG discussion: It is not possible for an OPC UA Server to retrieve the information whether an attached IO-Link device support these command or not. We leave the OPC UA methods mandatory. If an OPC UA Client call the method and the device does not support it, a suitable bad statuscode will be retrieve by the OPC UA method output argument.

WG review for companion specification document ok. Nodeset will be updated afterwards by Deepak.
