Process or field communication
Typical practice-related data
1
A list of the field devices which can be interfaced to
the relevant networks for the purpose of process or
field communication.
2
Configuring and commissioning can be done anywhere
on the network.
The freely selectable communication relationships are
thus extremely flexible, easy to convert, and easy to
change.

Slaves are network nodes on the PROFIBUS which
send data back to the master at the master's request.

AS-i is a single-master system with cyclic polling.
The AS-i cycle time is the time it takes for the master
The bus cycle time is understood to mean the time it
takes for each master (active bus nodes) to receive
When using electrical components, local networks
can extend over the distance defined in the standards.
The method of cabling used between the stations is
referred to as the network topology.

predetermined intervals.

Greater distances can be bridged using optical
components.

The degree of protection is shown as IPxy, whereby
the first digit (x) refers to shock-hazard protection as
well as protection against solid bodies.

The term 'interface' or 'interfacing' is understood to
mean the physical method of connecting bus nodes
to the bus cable.
