What is BS EN IEC 62769‑100 about?
BS EN IEC 62769‑100 is part 100 of the IEC 62769 series that specifies an FDI profile of IEC 62769 for generic protocols. That means that all interfaces are defined, and a host can add support for more protocols without changing its implementation.
Nevertheless, there are some protocol-specific definitions (PSD) that need to be specified per protocol using this profile. Annex C specifies what PSDs need to be defined per protocol so that FDI Device Packages, FDI Communication Packages for Gateways and FDI Communication Servers, FDI Communication Servers, Gateways and Devices supporting such a protocol can work together in a host not aware about this specific protocol.
BS EN IEC 62769‑100 can help you integrate field devices with different networks and control systems used in the process industries.
Who is BS EN IEC 62769‑100 for?
BS EN IEC 62769‑100 on field device integration (FDI)- generic protocols is useful for:
- Organizations shifting to service-oriented architecture
- Software development teams
- Cybersecurity teams
- Organizations providing field device integration services
- Field device system suppliers
Why should you use BS EN IEC 62769‑100?
Field device integration (FDI) integrates field devices with different networks and control systems used in the process industries.
BS EN IEC 62769‑100 specifies what PSDs need to be defined per protocol so that FDI Device Packages, FDI Communication Packages for Gateways and FDI Communication Servers, FDI Communication Servers, Gateways and Devices supporting such a protocol can work together in a host not aware about this specific protocol.
BS EN IEC 62769‑100 provides device-type identification mapping that enables FDI host systems to compare the scan result against the topology representation in the Information Model.
