A6-1 <Appendix 6. Link Master Functions> Appendix 6. Link Master Functions A6.1 Link Active Scheduler A link active scheduler (LAS) is a deterministic, centralized bus scheduler that can control communications on an H1 fieldbus segment. There is only one LAS on an H1 fieldbus segment. The transmitter supports the following LAS functions. • PN transmission: Identifies a fieldbus device newly connected to the same fieldbus segment. PN is short for Probe Node.
A6-2 <Appendix 6. Link Master Functions> A6.3 Transfer of LAS There are two procedures for an LM to become the LAS: • If the LM whose value of [V(ST)×V(TN)] is the smallest on a segment, with the exception of the current LAS, judges that there is no LAS on the segment, in such a case as when the segment has started up or when the current LAS has failed, the LM declares itself as the LAS, then becomes the LAS.
A6-3 <Appendix 6. Link Master Functions> (2) In the LAS settings of the transmitter, set the values of V(ST), V(MRD), and V(MID) to the same as the respective lowest capability values in all the devices within the segment.
