Abstract

A new functional profile for labaroratory devices is the result of a working group “Laboratory Data Communication” in the Standardization Committee “Laboratory Devices and Laboratory Equipment” of DIN. Based on a very complex functional profile for process devices (Class A) of the Profibus User Organisation (PNO), a set of only seven simplified function blocks have been proposed, wich meets the main communication requirements of low-cost laboratory devices. Two fieldbus systems are elected for the necessary transportoriented communication services: Measurement Bus (“DIN-Messbus”) and Profibus-DP/PA. All function blocks and its defined variables will be mapped on the specific application services of these two bus systems.
