1.5 AS-Interface standardization<br />

Fieldline Extension and the AS-Interface System<br />

1.5.1 AS-Interface specification<br />

The AS Interface specification defines the <strong>com</strong>plete AS-Interface system and guarantees<br />

standardization of all system <strong>com</strong>ponents. Three AS-Interface specifications have been<br />

published since AS-Interface has been introduced in the mid-90s.<br />

Standard slaves<br />

Slaves with extended<br />

addressing<br />

Table 1-1<br />

Specification 2.0 describes standard slaves. Addresses from 1 to 31 can be assigned to<br />

standard slaves. This limits an AS-Interface network to 31 AS-Interface slaves.<br />

Specifications 2.1 and 3.0 describe slaves with extended addressing. Addresses from 1A<br />

to 31A and 1B to 31B may be assigned to AS-Interface slaves according to these<br />

specifications. Thus, the possible number of AS-Interface-slaves in a network is doubled<br />

<strong>com</strong>pared with specification 2.0.<br />

The currently valid specification is the "Complete Specification" version 3.0, revision 2.0<br />

dated July 09, 2008 (as of August 14, 2009).<br />
