Define Segments

A segment is a subsection (part of a connection). Segments are the lowest equipment entities that are managed by AVEVA Batch Management. When a transfer is processed, the segments that make up a connection are allocated to a batch. This action prevents other transfers from using the same segments associated with their connection and enables the batch engine to provide automatic process interlocking.
