DAQSTATION WITH FIELDBUS COMMUNICATION
Morita Mikihiko, Kakihara Kaname, Hattori Hitoshi, Masahiko Takahashi · 2001
We have added a fieldbus interface to the DAQSTATION. In order to take advantage of the multi-channel measurement and trend-display capabilities of the DAQSTATION, we installed multiple analog input (MAI) and multiple analog output (MAO) function blocks. The DAQSTATION thus has become able to deal with a wide range of applications, from large-scale instrumentation using distributed control systems (DCS) to stand-alone small-scale supervisory systems. The DAQSTATION is now capable of easy networking through connection between a fieldbus and Ethernet. This paper describes examples of such applications.
