Advantages of the P-NET protocol
- All nodes can communicate immediately on the network
- All nodes are adapted to the same profile
- Very few communication parameters, compared with other fieldbus systems
- Any P-NET module, including a master, can be powered down or connected to or disconnected from the bus, without interfering with the rest of the bus system
- No DIP switches for setting of node addresses etc.
- The P-NET standard consists of data formats for simple as well as complex data types
- Scaled values are transmitted in SI units on the bus
- onclusion: Very simple installation and commissioning
