3.5.5 The FDL Protocol
The FDL protocol is used for communication with PROFIBUS
components complying with PROFIBUS EN 50 170. The CP can be
operated as a master.
A distinction is made between management services and productive
services. With the management services you can make the local
settings required by the productive services. The productive services
allow data transfer between the various PROFIBUS stations. A list of
the services available can be found in the volume “FDL Programming
Interface”.
An application is created in the C/C++ programming language. The
FDL application can be written for MS DOS, for MS Windows 3.x, for
MS Windows 95, for MS Windows NT or for UNIX.
