Addressing Field Buses

The following field buses can be addressed by either configuring the appropriate protocol or using dedicated modules and devices.

Field Bus	Addressing Method
AS-i	AS-Interface bus is addressed with a Modicon X80 BMXEIA0100 module.
HART	HART communication protocol can be addressed using either the eX80 HART modules: BMEAHI0812 HART analog input module BMEAHO0412 HART analog output module or a Modicon STB island with an STBNIP2311 EtherNet/IP network interface modue and an STBAHI8321 HART interface module.
Modbus TCP, EtherNet/IP	Modbus TCP devices are connected to the Ethernet DIO network.
Modbus Plus	Modbus Plus is supported using a gateway module like TCSEGDB23F24FA or TCSEGDB23F24FK.
PROFIBUS-DP	A PROFIBUS remote master is connected to the Ethernet DIO network. The process variables are exchanged via the DIO scanner service in the CPU. PROFIBUS gateway modules: TCSEGPA23F14F or TCSEGPA23F14FK
PROFIBUS-PA	A PROFIBUS remote master and a DP/PA interface are connected to an Ethernet DIO network. The process variables are exchanged via the DIO scanner service in the CPU. PROFIBUS gateway modules: TCSEGPA23F14F or TCSEGPA23F14FK
