High-Speed Data Exchange Features
Same priority for all field devices
Communication is permanent & cyclic
Amount of data specified during configuration
Only one master can write to outputs (safety
aspect)
Acyclic communication to field devices possible by
using extended functions (DP Extended/DPV1)
Alarm acknowledgment
Up to 244 bytes input AND 244 bytes output data
per field device
Fastest fieldbus system (up to 12Mbaud)
