BITBUS - The International Fieldbus
What is BITBUS
BITBUS
Background information on BITBUS:
BITBUS is used to interconnect stand-alone control units, terminals, data-loggers etc. It is especially suited to interchange medium-sized data telegrams (typ. 10..250 bytes) even at long distances (several kilometers).
BITBUS is based on two solid standards:
- RS485 as electrical specification for reliable communication through rough environments
- SDLC as a software protocol for compact, synchronous message transfer
