The method includes the following: tapping data traffic on the fieldbus by the fieldbus interface; and registering tapped configuration information relative to cyclic data traffic on the fieldbus by the fieldbus interface.
Claims10
A method for operating a fieldbus interface connected to a fieldbus of process automation technology, wherein the method comprises the steps of:
- tapping data traffic on the fieldbus by the fieldbus interface;
- and
- registering tapped configuration information relative to cyclic data traffic on the fieldbus by the fieldbus interface.
A fieldbus interface for connecting to a fieldbus of process automation technology, wherein the fieldbus interface is embodied in such a manner that data traffic on the fieldbus is tappable through such fieldbus interface and tapped configuration information relative to cyclic data traffic on the fieldbus can be registered.
