NETWORK & COMMUNICATION IN AUTOMATION SYSTEM
Network - a group of two or more computer system linked together. Communications system - collection of individual communication networks, transmission systems, relay stations, tributary stations usually capable of interconnection and interoperation to form an integrated whole. Industrial communications refers to the wide range of hardware and software products and protocols used to communicate between standard computer platforms (PC, Macintosh, or workstation) and devices used in industrial automation applications.
BROADCAST NETWORK TOPOLOGIES
Employ a common transmission medium to link all network nodes Medium may be continuous and connect the nodes in parallel or it may be broken with the nodes effectively dividing the medium into set of point-to-point link Types of network topologies: i. Bus or multi drop ii. Satellite (bus) network iii. Passive ring iv. Active ring
Bus or Multidrop
Formed from a continuous length of cable to which devices are attached using cable interfaces or taps. Transmitted message from device are transmitted (bidirectional) to all device on the bus simultaneously. Receiving deice accept only those message addressed to themselves The end of a bus cables are usually terminated in matched load to prevents interference between transmitted signal and copies of the signal travelling back down the cable having reflected form the cable ends. Multidrop system bus topologies are connected to a large number of location that can partitioned into geographical cluster Advantages: a) Configuration extremely tolerant of terminal failure b) Easily configured and extended E.g. : Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) used to connect disk and tape drives directly to the process of a computer.
