Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A field bus device ( 2 ) having a control unit ( 18 ), at least one field bus port ( 6, 13 ) for connecting the control unit ( 18 ) to a field bus ( 7, 4 ), and having a serial interface ( 11 ) for the data connection of the field bus device ( 2 ) to a configuration device ( 12 ) is described. The field bus device ( 2 ) has a web server platform ( 14 ) implemented in it which can be addressed using the TCP/IP protocol, wherein the web server platform ( 14 ) is set up to configure the field bus device ( 2 ). The field bus device ( 2 ) has a protocol converter ( 15 ) for converting the data transmission protocol for the serial interface ( 11 ) to the TCP/IP protocol and vice versa such that the configuration device ( 12 ) can use the web server platform ( 14 ) for access using data packets which are transmitted via the serial interface ( 11 ) and which are based on the TCP/IP protocol.
