Kenttäbusstandardien
Kenttäbusstandardien refers to a set of technical specifications and protocols used for communication within a fieldbus system. A fieldbus is a type of industrial local area network that connects programmable logic controllers (PLCs) and other control devices with sensors and actuators in a factory or process automation environment. These standards define the physical layer, data link layer, and application layer of the fieldbus communication.
Different fieldbus standards exist, each with its own characteristics, advantages, and typical applications. Examples include PROFIBUS,
The primary purpose of fieldbus standards is to ensure interoperability between devices from different manufacturers. This
