Use the machineryTask model for DITA 1.2
The machineryTask model offers several elements that are specific to writing procedures specific to machines rather than to software. This model is not available in IXIA CCMS Desktop by default, but you can enable it if you prefer to use it rather than the default strictTask.
Important: You must choose between strictTask and
machineryTask. You cannot use both simultaneously (unless you create a new module
that includes the superset of elements for both models, which is not covered here.)
Both are invoked by a single entity,
&taskbody-constraints
,
which must either point to the strictTask model or the machineryTask model. If you
have existing tasks that use the strictTask model, and any of them include the
<prereq> or <postreq> elements, those tasks will become invalid under
the machineryTask model, because those two elements are not defined for
machineryTask, which uses <prelreqs> and <closereqs> instead.
