EcoStruxure Machine Expert as an FDT Frame Application
FDT/DTM is a manufacturer-independent concept which allows the parameterization of field devices from different manufacturers using only one program in automation technology.
EcoStruxure Machine Expert is an FDT Frame Application for preferred fieldbusses.
NOTE: The use of third-party DTMs is not documented in the document. If you want to use one with EcoStruxure Machine Expert software, contact your local Schneider Electric representative.
FDT Concept with EcoStruxure Machine Expert
The FDT standard is used to define the interfaces between device-specific software components (DTMs) and EcoStruxure Machine Expert. The focus of the current version of FDT is on engineering, commissioning, diagnostics, and documentation of fieldbus based control systems.
