4 FOUNDATION Fieldbus H1
- Fieldbus devices are connected in parallel on the
bus, which carries digital data from/to all the
devices on the bus. - Fieldbus devices provide information to all other
devices on the network. - A multidrop fieldbus does not have the
shortcoming of point-to-point wiring. - Two devices are better than one!!
