Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A fieldbus gateway using a virtual serial fieldbus port and a data transmission method thereof are provided. By receiving a fieldbus frame containing target data through a virtual serial fieldbus port connected to a source device or a target device via a fieldbus gateway and sending another fieldbus frame containing the target data via other fieldbus port to target devices or source devices, the system and the method can provide two or more remote devices to control one controlled device at the same time. The invention also achieves the effect of using one virtual serial fieldbus port to transmit data between multiple source devices and target devices concurrently.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A fieldbus gateway using a virtual serial fieldbus port for at least one first device to read/write target data synchronized with at least one second device, comprising: a storage module; at least one first fieldbus port connected with each of the second devices/first devices; at least one second fieldbus port connected with each of the first devices/second devices, at least one of the first fieldbus ports and the second fieldbus ports being a virtual se…
