Network Topologies Selection Factors and Comparison
Learn the network topologies selection factors and comparison of bus, mesh, tree, star, ring, daisy-chain, and hybrid topology.
Industrial Instrumentation Communication and Networking – Learn about RS232, RS485, Modbus, HART, Fieldbus, Profibus, Serial Communications, etc.
Learn the network topologies selection factors and comparison of bus, mesh, tree, star, ring, daisy-chain, and hybrid topology.
Cyclic communication involves regular, scheduled data exchange for real-time control. Acyclic is irregular, and on-demand data transfer.
Types of wireless technologies in industrial automation are Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, wireless HART, ZigBee, RFID, ISA100.11a, and NFC.
Learn the difference between Modbus and Profibus. Modbus is simple to use while Profibus protocol offers higher speed communication.
In this article, you will learn about the optical fiber cable requirement and purpose. Also, the difference between SC and ST connectors.
A fiber optic patch cord is a cable that is terminated at both ends by connectors to connect to the respective communication optical port.
Splicing refers to the method of connecting two fiber optic cables and termination is used to connect two cables.
CANOpen is a very widely used protocol in industrial automation. In this post, we will learn the various types of CAN Open network topologies.
Profinet stands for ‘Process Field Net’. It is an industrial Ethernet standard that was developed by the Profibus & Profinet International.
Profibus (Process Field Bus) is a standard for fieldbus communication in automation technology. It uses Master-Slave architecture.
