PROFIBUS DPV1 Master FDT Communications DTM
PSW-cDTM-PDPM
FDT (Field Device Tool) technology standardizes the
communication interface between field devices and
systems. The key feature is its independence from the
communication protocol and the software environment of
either the device or the host system. FDT allows any
device to be accessed from any host through any
protocol.

The PROFIBUS DPV1 Master FDT (Field Device Tool)
communication DTM (comDTM) software is an interface
between any compliant FDT software container, an FDT
device DTM and applicable PROFIBUS slave devices.
The FDT PROFIBUS comDTM and a compatible
FDT 1.2.1 frame application connect multiple device
DTMs to their respective PROFIBUS connected field
instruments using the Ethernet port on the PC and
PROFIBUS DPV1 master module.

Typical FDT frame applications are Fieldcare (Endress +
Hauser), PACTware (PACTware association) or
fdtCONTAINER (MM-Software). The PROFIBUS DPV1
master modules support Class 1 and 2 services thereby
allowing for PLC cyclic Class 1 services to co-exist with
acyclic comDTM Class 2 services over the same
network.
