‘Ethernet Network’
An Engineeringtalk guide
Start with the news release
IFM releases safety monitors for AS-interface from
IFM Electronic, which we summarised at the time by saying "IFM has launched new versions of its safety monitor for equipment on the AS-interface.".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Namur approves Wirelesshart for process uses from
Hart Communication Foundation: "Namur has announced that Wirelesshart technology meets the requirements for wireless sensor networks in process applications.".
In November 2009, we covered the news from Comsol
- take a look at Comsol release accesses cluster-compute power
which says: "With the release of Multiphysics v4.0 for Windows HPC Server 2008 (HPCS), current users of a Comsol Multiphysics floating network licence will have free, unlimited access to cluster-compute power.".
Take a look also at the news release from Rittal, Rittal's PSM measures power consumption per socket,
as well as TRS supplies engineering staff to Fluor from TRS Staffing Solutions,
and Alrad introduces GigE Vision line scan camera from Alrad Instruments.
