AS-i fieldbus device and method for connecting an AS-i fieldbus device

摘要

The invention relates to an AS-i fieldbus device (14, 15, 16) and a method for connecting an AS-i fieldbus device (15) to an AS-i fieldbus system. The AS-i fieldbus system has an AS-i master (13) and an engineering tool (1). In this case, the AS-i fieldbus device (15) has a memory (150) in which an embedded ASIDD (151) is stored. The method comprises the following steps: connecting the AS-i fieldbus device (15) as an AS-i slave to the AS-i master (13); Uploading, by the AS-i master (13), the embedded ASIDD (151) from the AS-i fieldbus device (15) to the AS-i master (13); Requesting the embedded ASIDD (151) by the engineering tool (1) from the AS-i master (13) and uploading the embedded ASIDD (151) from the AS-i master (13) to the engineering tool (1); and creating, by the engineering tool (1), a configuration with the embedded ASIDD (151)
