Fieldbuses for Process Control: Engineering,
Operation, and Maintenance

Jonas Berge

This implementation-oriented book provides a clear and concise presentation of how to apply fieldbuses for process control. Based on experience collected from end-users in a wide range of industries around the world, it provides “how-to” information for all phases of the system lifecycle. The book covers the three leading process fieldbus technologies: HART, FOUNDATION™ Fieldbus, and PROFIBUS-PA. It covers both the field-level and the Ethernet-based host-level networking. The text also addresses concerns and solutions for interoperability, integration and migration as well as availability and safety. A chapter on benefits helps you justify business advantages to management. The final chapter provides an in-depth explanation of how these fieldbus technologies work. It is ideal for both organized training courses and for self-study and will remain a handy reference when configuring and troubleshooting systems.

Human Machine Interface Design for Process Control Applications Jean-Yves Fiset Users and designers of industrial control and monitoring systems (e.g., distributed control, supervisory control and data acquisition, and stand-alone) will benefit from this book’s easy-to-use—yet effective— method on how to configure, design, and validate human-machine interfaces (HMIs). It discusses the overall HMI design process and how that process relates to system design. It also details design methods, principles and rules for individuals or groups of displays, as well as the integration of software-based and hardwired HMIs. This book will help guide you on the design of HMIs for other, less common, yet important, components, such as expert systems and other electronically-displayed operating procedures. Using the knowledge contained in this book, you can determine how to configure or design a whole new set of displays for a system or how to enhance specific elements of an existing or planned HMI.
