PI invited some friends over to share the booth, forum, and catering area. In addition to PI’s large area, FDT Group, Fieldbus Foundation, and HART Communication Foundation were also in our “Fieldbus Communication Lounge.” PI has instigated cooperative efforts with all three groups to ease user interaction in wireless and in asset management infrastructure (FDT/EDDL/FDI).
PI had displays highlighting
- PROFIBUS PA (easy-to-use process automation)
- PROFIsafe (Phx controller)
- IO-Link
- PROFINET
- PROFIenergy
- Drives
- Individual company displays
Here’s a two-minute look over, around, and in the PI booth:
