(This is an issue for Part 13 but today there is no issue tracker "Component" for Part 13.)

While writing documentation for Part 13 I noticed that the type of the attribute that links Status to Faults is VersionedReference, but the likely target DeviceFault is only D2Identifiable. So the reference attribute has an optional "version" property but the DeviceFault has no such property. The targetClass tag for the reference attribute is actually blank.

This isn't very serious - users should just not use the optional "version" property in the reference. We will include that guidance in documentation. In v4 we should point to DeviceFault as the target, and we should change the type to Reference.
