FOUNDATION Fieldbus-HSE: High Speed Ethernet, FOUNDATION Fieldbus-H1: FOUNDATION Fieldbus-
H1, LD: Linking Device FOUNDATION Fieldbus-HSE/FOUNDATION Fieldbus-H1,
PS: Bus Power Supply, SB: Safety Barrier, BT: Bus Terminator
The system can be connected in the following ways:
– A linking device makes the connection to higher-order fieldbus levels (e.g. High Speed Ethernet (HSE)) possible.
– An FOUNDATION Fieldbus-H1 connecting card is needed for direct connection to a process control system.
Note!
Further information on FOUNDATION Fieldbus can be found in Operating Instructions BA013S
