Fieldbus Foundation, HART and Profibus cooperate on wireless
 
基金会现场总线、HART和Profibus就无线技术展开合作

Austin, Texas, Sept. 28, 2007 -- The Fieldbus Foundation has joined the HART Communication Foundation and Profibus Nutzerorganisation e.V. (PNO) in launching a cooperative initiative for wireless technology in the manufacturing and process industries. The new project is an extension of the organizations' successful collaboration on Electronic Device Description Language (EDDL) and another step to deliver consistent functionality to automation end users.

奥斯汀9月28日消息——基金会现场总线联合HART通讯基金会和Profibus组织发表一份合作协议，开始制造和过程工业的无线技术的合作计划。此项新的计划是这三个组织继成功合作EDDL（电子设备描述语言）后的一项扩展，是为自动化终端用户提供一致功能的另一个步骤。

As part of the wireless initiative, the three industry organizations will develop a specification for a common interface to a wireless gateway. They have agreed to base their work on the WirelessHART technology of the HART Communication Foundation and the emerging ISA SP100.11a standard. The project will include development of use cases, requirements and specifications for wireless communication with intelligent field devices in process measurement and control applications in the automation industries.

作为无线计划的一部份，这三个工业组织将开发一个连接无线网关的通用界面的规范。三方已经同意基于HART通信基金会的WirelessHART技术，以及发展较快的ISA SP100.11a标准进行开发。该计划将包括在自动化工业过程测量和控制应用领域与智能现场设备实现无线通信的使用案例、要求和规范的开发。

As was done with their EDDL cooperation, the Fieldbus Foundation, HART and PROFIBUS groups have also agreed to develop a common set of compliance guidelines for incorporation into their respective product registration processes.

与他们EDDL合作所作的那样，基金会现场总线、HART和Profibus集团也已经同意制定一套共同遵守的准则，纳入各自的产品注册流程。

The introduction of wireless technology into the manufacturing and process industries will require suppliers, end users, and international standards bodies to address technical issues related to wireless applications. The Fieldbus Foundation, HART and PROFIBUS organizations are working together in the interest of establishing a common, open standard while insuring complete compatibility with the existing wired versions of each participant's technology. The intent of the collaboration is to facilitate the acceptance of wireless technology in industrial automation.

在制造业和流程工业引入无线技术将要求供应商、最终用户以及国际标准机构解决跟无线应用相关的技术问题。基金会现场总线、HART和Profibus组织正在共同努力，致力于建立一个共同的开放标准，同时确保与每个参与者技术现有的有限版本完成兼容。本次合作计划是为了促进在工业自动化领域普及无线技术。
