Issue

Is SGCB.ResvTms timing exposed? e.g.: what is the value of a half-run ResvTms attribute?
for example:
step1. config ResvTms = 10s and launch IED;
step2. client send request SelectEditSG and wait for 6s;
step3. client send request GetSGCBValues(ResvTms);
what is the expected value from GetSGCBValues,
the remaining time of 4s?
OR
still 10s?

section 16.2.2.8 does not clarify that.

Proposal

It would be nice to have the ResvTms timing process exposed on-line, in case any client wants to see the remaining time. for example, SGCB is reserved for 60s to ClientA, who is already aware of the expiration time duration by GetSGCBValues(ResvTms) from the beginning of timing, while ClientB is not aware but wants to be, in that case on-line visible ResvTms timing process would help.
