Interbus

One of the international leading FieldBus systems is INTERBUS. This system connects the whole process peripheral unit with all prevailing control units. The serial bus cable can be used for network sensors and actuators to control machine and system parts, to network production cells, and connect higher-level systems such as control rooms. In terms of topology, INTERBUS is a ring system. Each device amplifies the incoming signal and sends it on. Unlike other ring systems, the data forward and return lines in the INTERBUS system are led to all devices via a single cable. A main line exists the bus master and can be used to form seamless sub-networks. This means that the bus system can be quickly adapted to changing applications.
