Eine direkte, enge Vernetzung von Energieverteilnetzwerken und industrieller Anlagensteuerungen ermöglicht nicht nur höhere Prozessverfügbarkeit und verbessert die Netzstabilität, sondern hilft Lastspitzen zu vermeiden und verbessert die Energieeffizienz der Produktionsprozesse. In diesem Artikel erläutere ich einige Ideen als auch reale Anwendungen in welchen intelligente Datengateways "integrated Energy" im kleinen als auch großen Maßstab ermöglichen.

Die IXXAT Econ 100: Ein flexibler und skalierbarer embedded-PC für Echtzeit-Industrial Ethernet. Die neue echtzeitfähige Kleinsteuerung ermöglicht über den Multi-Protokollansatz auf Basis der Anybus CompactCom Netzwerkanbindung den Anschluss an alle Busse - mit einfacher Programmierbarkeit für Anwender.

CAN FD offers an opportunity to use existing CAN systems and CAN knowledge even when demands are high for number of nodes, transfer rates, and cycle times.
CAN FD extends the application area for CAN-based solutions by means of significantly improved data rates, a simple configuration and the retention of analysis options known from classic fieldbuses. The impending availability of CANopen for CAN FD means that the new network system can be implemented in the industrial sector, and offers an… Mehr anzeigen

CAN FD offers an opportunity to use existing CAN systems and CAN knowledge even when demands are high for number of nodes, transfer rates, and cycle times.
CAN FD extends the application area for CAN-based solutions by means of significantly improved data rates, a simple configuration and the retention of analysis options known from classic fieldbuses. The impending availability of CANopen for CAN FD means that the new network system can be implemented in the industrial sector, and offers an effective solution for networks with a data rate of 100 kbit/sec to 5 Mbit/sec. With the option to use the higher data rates or the extended data framework individually or in combination, the flexible design of CAN FD makes it extremely suitable as an adaptable fieldbus system for special purpose machinery.

With CAN-based systems being used in manifold applications that require continuous
operability, also under harsh environmental conditions and extended service-cycles,
the verification of CAN operability is essential. Especially, the direct detection of

With CAN-based systems being used in manifold applications that require continuous
operability, also under harsh environmental conditions and extended service-cycles,
the verification of CAN operability is essential. Especially, the direct detection of
failure sources enabling thorough maintenance before systems may fail.
This presentation shows how the use of enhanced CAN specific test tools in
combination with common measurement devices like Digital Signal Analyzers is key
to solve typical failures in CAN systems. Often these failures require significant time
and effort to solve: e.g. detecting faulty configured devices leading to multiple bit-
rates or use of same CAN-IDs by several nodes in a network or the how to detect the
device that destroys any messages by its primary error-flag.
Furthermore various possibilities will be discussed which can be used to improve the
robustness of CAN networks. These possibilities can help harden a network against
failures on the physical layer and misbehavior of devices in order to avoid a
breakdown of the complete network. Weniger anzeigen
