Enabling Industrial Devices to Speak Multiple Fieldbus Languages Without Hardware Translator - Blog
March 27, 2023In the early years of industrial process control, industrial devices (sensors and actuators) were individually connected to a programmable logic controller using dedicated wires that carried analog (4-20mA) current signals. However, the number of required inputs and outputs increased as processes became more complex, making cable routing complicated and unwieldy and fault debugging increasingly tricky.
