SEM2: 11:00AM- 11:45AM Industrial Communications By John Piccinic This presentation explores the evolution and application of analog signaling and digital communications in industrial settings, offering a comprehensive understanding of both traditional and modern communication protocols. Beginning with the fundamentals of analog signaling, it progresses to digital communication protocols such as HART (Highway Addressable Remote Transducer) and Fieldbus, illustrating their role in industrial automation and control. The discussion then transitions to the basics of Ethernet as a networking technology, emphasizing its adaptability and scalability. Finally, the presentation delves into the intricacies of industrial Ethernet, highlighting its benefits for robust, high-speed, and reliable communication in demanding environments. Throughout, real-world examples and live demonstrations using test equipment will be presented, showcasing waveforms that visualize different signaling types and communication methods. These demonstrations will provide attendees with a clear, practical understanding of the technology, enabling them to apply this knowledge effectively in their own operations. This session aims to equip professionals with the knowledge needed to navigate the complexities of modern industrial communication systems, bridging the gap between legacy technologies and emerging digital standards.
