Press release date: July 22, 2010
At BIS Prozesstechnik GmbH In Frankfurt, Germany
Courses cover all key aspects of open, non-proprietary FOUNDATION fieldbus technology
AUSTIN, Texas, - The Fieldbus Foundation today announced it will offer FOUNDATION(TM) fieldbus developer training during September 2010 at BIS Prozesstechnik GmbH, located in Frankfurt, Germany. The vendor-neutral "Introduction to FOUNDATION Fieldbus" and "Advanced Principles of FOUNDATION Fieldbus" courses cover all key aspects of open, non-proprietary Foundation fieldbus technology.
The one-day "Introduction to FOUNDATION Fieldbus" course will be conducted on Sept. 21. The three-day "Advanced Principles of FOUNDATION Fieldbus" will be held on Sept. 22-24.
The "Introduction to FOUNDATION Fieldbus course is designed for developers, end users, marketing professionals, applications engineers, system integrators and others interested in obtaining a fundamental knowledge of FOUNDATION technology. Students become familiar with the basic concepts and new terminology related to the FOUNDATION integrated architecture. They gain an understanding of the strategies for wiring and installation of a fieldbus network. Special emphasis is placed on design issues such as power requirements, device types and topologies.
This introductory course has been updated to include new information about grounding and shielding, as well as FOUNDATION for Safety Instrumented Functions (FF-SIF) technology.
The "Advanced Principles of FOUNDATION Fieldbus" course is designed for manufacturers and developers of fieldbus hardware and software. It is best suited for development engineers, test engineers, and all who wish to understand the detailed inner workings of a FOUNDATION fieldbus device. The course covers major tools used by FOUNDATION device developers. Students gain an understanding of the basics of the bus monitor and apply this tool in interactive exercises demonstrating fieldbus communications and the use of filters for network troubleshooting. The curriculum also addresses H1 and High Speed Ethernet (HSE) communications between fieldbus devices.
This advanced course includes updated information concerning alerting/alarming and Electronic Device Description Language (EDDL), as well as new sections on developments in Field Diagnostics and Capability Files. The new technology implements role-based diagnostics, meaning the right information is sent to the appropriate person-when they need it. A system of push diagnostics, rather than pull diagnostics, allows the user to receive alerts much quicker and to the right people, instead of having to request information from the devices. The Device Development section incorporates some previously included information, but has been expanded to better describe the process.
Both of the FOUNDATION fieldbus developer courses will be offered in the United States later in 2010. The one-day "Introduction to FOUNDATION Fieldbus" course will be conducted In Austin, Texas, on Nov. 9. The three-day "Advanced Principles of FOUNDATION Fieldbus" will be held in Austin on Nov. 10-12 .
