Industrial communication networks - Fieldbus specifications - Part 3-19: Data-link layer service definition - Type 19 elements

Standard Details

IEC 61158-3-19:2010 defines in an abstract way the externally visible service provided by the Type 19 fieldbus data-link layer in terms of the primitive actions and events of the service; the parameters associated with each primitive action and event, and the form which they take and the interrelationship between these actions and events, and their valid sequences. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2007 and constitutes a technical revision. The main changes with respect to the previous edition are:
- increasing the number of supported devices (511 instead of 254);
- introducing a communication version identification;
- adding a mechanism for remote address allocation;
- introducing enhanced parameter addressing (32 bit instead of 16 bit);
- restructuring control and status word;
- improving the redundancy and hotplug features;
- improving the error handling;
- adding a multiplexing protocol (SMP: Type 19 Messaging Protocol). This bilingual version published in 2012-01 corresponds to the English version published in 2010-08.
