Abstract

A considerable share of power drive systems (PDS) on the market are controlled over industrial networks or fieldbuses. These interfaces are defined in a manufacturer independent way in profiles, which are dependent of the type of network interface. A generic interface to PDS opens the possibility to accept these profiles in international standards and to open the access for new, industrial Ethernet based communication technology. This paper gives an overview of the generic interface, the different profiles and the candidates for industrial Ethernet capable to control PDS in real-time
