Does the Profibus Card Support the Industrial Ethernet Protocol?

Hardware: Industrial Communications>>Profibus

Problem: Industrial Ethernet is a part of the Siemens communication system. Does the Profibus interface from National Instruments support this protocol?

Solution: The National Instruments PROFIBUS interfaces were developed by Applicom International. The Applicom communication system works with a wide variety of protocols, because it uses a common protocol-independent software interface. To make sure that a protocol is supported, you can check Applicom's website:

http://us.applicom-int.com/us/applicom_en/applicom_en.html

From this site, select Protocols. For more information on the Industrial Ethernet protocol, select Industrial Ethernet. The site will give you more information on what protocols are supported by Applicom.
