Acquire resource request

During batch execution, phase logic can issue a request to the

FactoryTalk Batch

Server to acquire a pre-configured resource. Each resource configured with

FactoryTalk Batch Equipment Editor

has an equipment ID, which is a positive integer. Requests to acquire a resource refer to the resource using the equipment ID.

Resources acquire when the Acquire Resources request issues. Acquired resources release either by the Release Resources phase request or when removed the phase step from the set of active steps in the recipe.
