About WorldFIP

In this section you can teach yourself the basics of WorldFIP Fieldbus. Take your time, and learn at your own rate from our Basics Guides:

• Overview
  We suggest you start with this overview, which takes you from theory to practice and explains the broad range of WorldFIP's technology and services.
• WorldFIP Protocol
  Once you've absorbed the basic ideas and have an understanding of WorldFIP's portfolio, this guide will explain in more technical detail how the WorldFIP protocol operates, and why it provides greater functionality and better security.
• WorldFIP Products
  Using the chipsets, protocols and toolkits described in the previous modules, over 150 manufacturers worldwide have already developed ranges of products with WorldFIP connectivity. If you need instruments sensors and actuators; drives (AC and DC, both simple and complex); I/O systems; PLCs and high-function industrial controllers; PC adaptor boards; MMI's and SCADA systems; networking cables, terminations, repeaters and couplers; diagnostic tools; or even gateways to/from other bus systems -- you'll find it all in here!
• WorldFIP Applications
  There are over 100,000 WorldFIP nodes on order or installed all around the world, in thousands of commercial applications for industry. In this module we aim to provide an overview of WorldFIP's wealth of industrial experience.
• WorldFIP Organisation
  WorldFIP is not just about technology. The WorldFIP Organisation is a non-profit body, with a main board composed equally of multi-national users and vendors, to ensure that it keeps to its original aim -- of blazing the trail to a true single international fieldbus.
