INTRODUCTION
A Fieldbus is a digital, serial, multidrop, data bus for communication with low-level industrial control
and instrumentationdevices such as transducers, actuators and local controllers. The Physical Layer
specified in this part of IEC 1158 provides for transparent transmission of data units between Data
Link Layer entities across physical connections.
The Physical Layer receives data units from the Data Link Layer, adds preamble and delimiters,
provides encoding and transmits the resulting physical signals to the transmicsion medium at one
node.Signals are then received at one or more other nodes, decoded and stripped of preamble and
delimiters. before being passed to the Data Link Layer of the receiving device.
Currently this pari of IEC 1158 only specifies wire media. The common characteristics for wire
media are as follows:
b) self-clocking;
d) Manchestercoding.
The mapr variations for these media are two modes of coupling and three signalling speeds as
follows:
The vottage mode variations l),2). and 4)may be implemented with inductive coupling using trans-
formers. This is not mandatory if the isolation requirementsof this part of IEC 1 1 58 are met by ather
means.
Alternative media (e.g. coaxial cable, optical fibre and radio transmission) and speeds are not
included in this edition of this part of IEC 1158.
Three alîernative types of MDS are currently envisaged; one for wire media, one for optical media,
and one for radio. The MDS adds preamble plus start delimiter before the data block, adds an end
delimiter aíter the data block and encodes the data. In the reverse direction it &axles signals
received via the medium, removing preamble and delimiters and providing signal quality error
checking.
Serial encoded signals are passed across an interface, which may optionally be exposed, to a
Medium Attachment Unit (MAU) which transmits and receives Physical Layer signals via the
medium. A general model of the Physical Layer is shown in figure 1.

8.1 Services
The following services, defined in this subclause, shall be supported by the DTE - DCE interface:
This service shall provide a means by which the DTE, at any time, can reset the DCE to its initial
(power-on) state.
This service shall provide a means by which the DTE can configure various charactenstics of the
DCE, including those characteristics which station management can adjust via Ph-SETVALUE
requests (see table i). It also shall provide a DCEoptional means by which the DTE can initiate
reporting of DCE status by preemptiveuse of the DCE to DTE message-reporting service.
This service shall provide a means by which the DTE can transmit a message through the DCE to
either the connected medium (media), or back to the DTE, or both, as determined by the current
operational values of the parameters specified in table 1. The DCE shall provide the pacing for this
service.
This Service is invoked upon receipt Of a Ph-DATA requesi specifying START-OF-ACTIVITY at the PhL
service interface, and runs until receipt of and comptetion of the Ph-DATA request specifying END-OF-
DATA-AND-ACTIVITY.
This service shall provide a means by which the DCE, at any time, can report a fault. The specific
nature of the fault is not reported by this service, but may be determinable by use of the DTE to
DCE configuration service to initiate a DCEoptional DCE status report.
This service shall provide a means by which the DCE reports the inferred detection, on any of its
connected media for which receiving is enabled (see table 1). of signalling from itself or other
Ph-Layer entities. While loopback is enabled, this service reports only the signalling of the DCE
itself.
When the DTE - DCE interface is in halfduplex mode and loopback is not enabled, this service
need not report media activity resulting directly from the DTE to DCE message-transmission
service.
This service shall provide a means by which the DCE reports the receipt of a sequence of PhPDUs
from any one of the connected media for which receiving is enabled. This service terminates with an
indication of whether the sequence of received PhPDUs was well formed. Errors in the sequence,
including number of PhPDUs such that they a u l d not have been a correct transmission resulting
from an invocation of the DCE to DTE messagetransmission service shall be reported as a
malformed (erroneous) sequence.
NOTE - E m in the Odet d i m i e n t of a received end deümilar with respect b the preceding Matt delimiter (¡.e.. not separabed
by an integral number of octets ddata bib) is to be repomd as a malformed sequence.
-
When the DTE DCE interface is in halfduplex mode and loopback is mi enabled, this service
need not report the message transmitted by the DCE to DTE message-transmissionservice.
-
If the DTE DCE interface is exposed it shall providethe signals specified in table 3.

The signal levels shall be as shown in table 4. In general, both sides of the interface shall operate
with the same approximate value of VDD. However, it is recognized that a DTE and a DCE with
separate power supplies may not both reach operational VDD simultaneously. It is desirable, but not
mandatory, that the DTE to DCE reset service be operational when the DCE has not yet reached
operational VDD. It is also desirable that the DTE invoke this service whenever its own VDD is below
operational margins.

The timing characteristics of these signals shall be at least equal to those specified for the relevant
DCE in the requirements of this part of IEC 1158. However, in no case shall the transition time
W e e n 0.3 VOOand 0,6 VDD be greater than either 100 ns or 0,025 P, whichever is smaller. P is
defined as the nominal period of octet transmission-the inverse of the nominal PhSDU rate.
An implementation of the DTE - DCE interface shall function correctly with transmit and receive
(TxC and RxC) clock frequencies between 1 kHz and 8,8 times the highest supported PhSDU rate of
the DTE or DCE implementation.
The Transmit Clock signal (TxC) shall provide the DTE with a continuous timing signal, such that
any eight consecutive full cycles of this signal shall have the same octet penad as the nominal
transmit period for one data octet. The DCE shall source this nominally two-phase signal such that
each phase has a duration of at least 0,04 f .

The Request to Send (RTS) signal supports the DTE to DCE reset, configuration, and message-
transmission services. The DTE shall source this signal. The initial (power-on) and idle (no DTE to
DCE service active) state of this signal shall be low.
When referenced to TxC at the DTE - DCE interface, this signal shall have a minimum setup time
of the smaller of either 100 ns or 0,025 P;the hoM time shall be zero or greater.
The Clear to Send (CTS) signal supports the DTE to DCE configuration and message-transmission

When referenced to TxC at the DTE - DCE interface, this signal shall have a minimum setup time
of the smaller of either 100 ns or 0,025 P; the hold time shall be zero or greater.
The Transmit Data (TxD) signal supports the DTE to DCE reset, configuration, and message-
transmission services. Binary data is transmitted from DTE to DCE during one phase of the latter
two services, and during this phase a binary O is represented by a low level on TxD and a binary 1
by a high level on TxD, both sampled at the falling edge of TxC.
The DTE shall source this signal. The initial (power-on) and idle (no DTE to DCE service active)
state of this signal shall be high.
When referenced to TxC at the DTE - DCE interface, this signal shall have a minimum setup time
of the smaller of either 1O0 ns or 0,025 P; the hold time shall be zero or greater.
The Receive Clock signal (RxC) shall provide the DTE with an intermittent (semi-continuaus) nomi-
nally two-phase timing signal which defines the timing of informationbeing reported via the RDF sig-
nal. The DCE shall source this signal such that, where RxC is defined to be meaningful (see8.3.6),
each phase has a duration of at least 0,04 P.

so that Ihe delimiter can be reported in real time using 8 Q( fewer cydes of RxC (see8.3.6).
The Receive Activity (RxA) signal shall support the DCE to DTE fault notification, media-activity
indication, and message-reportingservices. The DCE shall source this signal. The initial (power-on)
and idle (no DCE to DTE service active) state of this signal shall be low.
The Receive Data and Framing (RDF) signal shall support the DCE to DTE fault notification and
message-reporting services. Binary data is transmitted from DCE to DTE during some phases of the
latter service, and during these phases a binary O is represented by a low level on RDF and a binary
1 by a high level on RDF, both sampled at the falling edge of RxC.
The DCE shall source this signal. The initial (power-on) and idle (no DCE to DTE service active)
state of this signal shall be high.
When referenced to RxC at the DTE - DCE interface, this signal shall have a minimum setup time
of the smaller of either 100 ns or 0,025 P; the hold time shall be zero or greater.
The services of 8.1 shall be implemented by the following sequences and combinations of the
signals of 8.2.

preempt the DTE to DCE configuration and message-transmissionservices at any time.
This service shall be encoded as a simultaneous low levei on both RTS and TxD. When asserted by
the DTE, this simultaneous low level shall be held for at least the nominal transmission period of two
PhSDUs (octets).

If the DTE concurrently changes both RTS and TxD during the implementation of either the DTE to
DCE configuration or messagetransmission services, then the DTE shall ensure that an interval of
at least the minimum required setup time exists between changing the one signal to a high level,
and subsequently changing the other signal to a low level, to eliminate potential logic hazards in the
DCEc implementationof the DTE to DCE reset service.
This service is mutually exclusive with the DTE to DCE reset and message-transmissionservices; at
mst one of them may be active at any given time. This service may initiate the DCE to DTE
messagereporting service to report DCE-internal status. The DTE to DCE reset service may
preempt this service at any time.
This service shall be implemented in three phases: each of the latter two phases shall follow imme-
diately upon completionof the prior phase.

DTE and DCE.
1) The DTE shall assert (raise) RTS after the falling edge, and before the rising edge, of TxC.
The DCE shall respond by anticipating configurationdata.
2) When it is ready for configurationdata from the DTE, the DCE shall raise CTS before the fall-
ing edge of TxC. The DTE shall respond by encoding the first bit of configuration data (high=l,
bw=O) on TxD before the falling edge of the next TxC. and shall continue this process without
interruption until between 2 and 200 bits of data (see 8.4) have been so encoded. The DTE shall
then assert (raise) TxD and negate (bwer) RTS before the falling edge of the next TxC.
NOTE 2-The DTE should ersure IhatTxD k rased at least aie setup time before RTS is kwered. t~avoid potmtiai logk
hazards in the DCE implementalion of the DTE b DCE reset service.
3) The DCE shall conclude any necessary reconfgurationbefore negating (lowering) CTS, which
shall occur betweentwo consecutive falling edges of TxC.
Both standardized and extendible configuration messages are defined in 8.4. Standardized
messages cover the ranges of application of this interface which are anticipated to be most cost
sensitive. Extendible messages permit differing forms of DCE configuration where required, and can
serve to initiate the DCE to DTE messagereporting service to report DCE-internal status (a DCE
option further described in 8.4).
This service is mutually exclusive with the DTE to DCE reset and configuration services; at most
one of them may be active at any given time. The DTE to DCE reset service may preempt this
service at any time.
This service shall be implemented in three phases; each of the latter two phases shall follow imme-
diately upon completion of the prior phase.
1) The DTE shall assert (raise) RTS aíter the rising edge, and before the falling edge, of TxC.
The DCE shall respond by generating and transmitting the appropriatelength sequence of
preamble and start delimiter PhPDUs.
2) When it is ready for transparent data from the DTE. the DCE shall raise CTS before the falling
edge of TxC. The DTE shall respond by encoding the first bit of transparent data (highæl , low=O)
on TxD before the next falling edge of TxC, and shall continue this process without interruption
until between 3 and 300 integraloctets of data have been so encoded. The DTE shall then assert
(raise) TxD and negate (lower) RTS before the next falling edge of TxC.
NOTE -The DTE shall ensure lhat TxD is raised at least one setup time before RTS ic bwemd, b avoid potentiai logic
hazards in the DCE implementationofthe D E b DCE reset service.
3) The DCE shall conclude transmissionof all of the encoded transparent data received from the
DTE, shall then generate and transmit the appropriatelengthsequence of end delimiter PhPDUs,
and shall then cease transmission. The DCE shall then wait an amount of time equal to the
configured minimum post-transmissiongap (seetable 1) before negating (lowering) CTS, which
shall occur after a falling edge, and before the next falling edge, of TxC.
This service shall be mutually exclusive with the DCE to DTE media-activity indication and
message-reportingservices; at most one of them may be active at any given time. This service may
preempt the DCE to DTE media-activity indication and message-reportingservices at any time.
This service shall be encoded as a simultaneous low level on both RxA and RDF. Once asserted by
the DCE, this simultaneous low level shall be held until activation of either the DTE to DCE reset or
configuration services.
NOTE -This is an asynchronous serviœ. and is not reíerenœd b RXC.
The DCE may concurrently change both RxA and RDF during the concurrent termination of the DCE
to DTE media-activityindication and messagereporting services. The DTE is responsible for avoid-
ing any logic hazards induced by this concurrent change.
This service is mutually exclusive with the DCE to DTE fault notification service; at most one of
them may be active at any given time. The DCE to DTE fault notificationservice may preempt this
service at any time.
This service shall be encoded as a high level on RxA. Once asserted by the DCE, this high level
enables recognition of a high-to-lowtransition on RDF to initiate the DCE to DTE message-reporting
service. Any subsequent high-to-low transition on RxA terminates that DCE to DTE message-
reporting service.
NOTE - The DCE b D E media-acüvity indication service is an asynchronous service. and is not referenced b RxC.
This service is mutually exclusive with the DCE to DTE fault notification service; at most one of
them may be active at any given time. This service can only occur while the DCE to DTE media-
activity indication service is active. The DCE to DTE fault notification service may preempt this
service at any time.
This service shall be implemented in four phases when reporting a well-formed message, each of
which shall follow immediately upon completion of the prior phase.
The following description applies to DCEs which have end delimiter sequences of eight PhPDUs or
less, and which do not require any extra decoding delay for an FEC (forward error correcting) code.
DCEs which do not meet these amditions may introduce extra delay into their decoding and report-
ing processesso that, with respect to signalling on RxC and RDF, they do meet these condiions.
i)After detecting received signalling, training on that signalling, and recovering a data clock
from that signallingwhose nominal octet frequency is the same as TxC, the DCE shall initiate the
DCE to DTE message-reporting service by sourcing that recovered clock on RxC and then
negating (lowering) RDF after the rising edge, and before the next falling edge, of RxC.
NOTE 1 -RxAisalreadyapserredatthistime.
2) The DCE shall continue training and attempting to match the received signalling against its
expected preamble and start delimiter PhPDUs.
Ifthe DCE supports Nchannels of redundant media, then it may report on RDF the identity of the
channel from which the signalling is being received by encoding that channel number, in the
range O to N-1 , as a binary number which is reported most significant bit first during reception of
the last three of those start delimiter PhPDUs. The bas reported on RDF shall be presented in
series after successive rising edges of RXC, each before the immediately subsequent falling
edge of RxC.
Upon detecting an exact match between the received signalling and the expected start delimiter,
the DCE shall invert RDF after the falling edge, and before the next rising edge, of RxC.
-
NOTE 2 If the identity of (he receivingdiand was being report& on RDF, then this inversion mil occur during îhe low phase
of RxC which hmediat6iy íoiiows (he high phase (of RxC) during which îhe last (kWorder) bit of Ihe drannel nunber was
W0f-d.
3) The DCE shall continue reception and attempting to match the received signalling against
potential data and expected end delimiter PhPDUs.
The DCE shall report each data bit decoded from the received signalling on RDF. The bits
reported on RDF shall be presented in series after successive rising edges of RXC, each before
the immediately subsequent falling edge of RxC. In the absence of errors these bits shall be
reported in the same order and with the same values as they were transmitted by a peer PhL
entity.
NOTE 3 -This is aguaran- of transparency.
An end delimiter may be composed of both data and nondata PhPDUs. The DCE may report
similarly on RDF each data bit decoded from an end delimiter, and may report also on RDF an
appropriate number of data values for the non-data PhPDUs decoded from an end delimiter,
except that
b) upon detecting an exact match between the received signalling and the expected end
delimiter, the DCE shall nat report on RDF another bit corresponding to the end delimiter's
last "bit", but rather shall first assert (raise) RDF after the rising edge, and before the next
falling edge, of RxC, and then shall negate (lower) RDF after the falling edge, and before the
next rising edge, of RxC.
NOTES
4 Most implementam will decode, and report on RDF as data, any initial clara PhPDUs in a recehred end-deümiter
sequence. The first nondata PhPDU, and subsequent PhPDUs. need not be repasd. However, a final report Ml be made QI

4) The DCE shall assert (raise) RDF before the next falling edge of RXC and shall not initiate
another instance of the DCE to DTE messagereporting service until after the conclusion of the
current DCE to DTE media-activrty indication service.
An error may be detected during any phase of the reception process described in 8.3.6.1. When that
occurs, the DCE shall modify its sequencingof those phases as follows.
If the DCE should detect invalid PhPDUs, or an invalid sequence of PhPDUs, or a valid end
delimiter sequence of PhPDUs which is not separated from the start delimiter PhPDUs by an
integral number of data-octets of PhPDUs; and if the DCE can establish a valid signal on RxC (for
example, by substituting TxC or some other local signal for the recovered clock source, if
necessary); then
a) If phase 2 has not already been initiated, then the DCE shall immediately initiate phase 2;
b) If phase 2 has not already been concluded, then the DCE shall immediately conclude phase 2
as rapidly as possible, ignoring the requirement for matching of the start delimiter PhPDU
sequence;
c) Otherwise, the DCE shall immediately negate (lower) RDF after the rising edge, and before
the next falling edge, of RxC. and then shall assert (raise) RDF after the falling edge, and before
the next rising edge, of RxC.

When the DCE has completed as many of the above steps (a), (b) and (c) as appropriate and
possible, the DCE shall immediately initiate phase 4.
This subclause defines both standardized configuration messages, and the standardized portion of
extendible configuration messages. Standardized messages cover the ranges of application of this
interface which are anticipated to be most commonly used. Extendible messages permit differing
forms of DCE configuration where required, and can serve to initiate the DCE to DTE message-
reporting service to report DCE-internal status (a DCE option).
Two standardized messages, and two dasses of extendible messages, are defined. All messages
are transmitted across the interface in the order in which the bits are defined. Integers are trans-
mitted most-significant-ba(MSB) first.
The two standardized messages and two classes of extendible messages are distinguished by the
first two data bits of the configurationmessage, as follows:
O1 - Pathdiversitycontrol message
-
10 Extendibleconfigurationmessage
Following its initial two bits of (00), the basic configuration message specifies operational aspects
common to most DCEs. The defined components of this message are, in order of transmission:
a) The operational mode of the DCE, encoded in one data bt as shown. The value for this
parameter aíter activation of the DTE to DCE reset service is O.
O Two-way simultaneous (fullduplex), where each invocation of the DTE to DCE message-
transmission service automatically activates the DCE to DTE media-activity indication and
message-reportingservices;
NOTE 1 -This mode is desirable tor dual-channel medi such as fibre-opöc-pair cabling. Corne D E S may only be able 1D
operate in hi¡mode.
NOTE 2 - Thic mode minimizes DCE and DTE - DCE interface power consumption. Some DTEc may miy be able OD opera@
in thic mode.
b) The selection of the DCE-internal data source for the message-reportingservice, encoded in
two data bits as shown. (See table 1.) The value for this parameter after activation of the DTE to
DCE reset service is OO. When this selection is non-zero, transmission on all attached media
shall be disabled and the DTE - DCE interface shall operate in two-way simultaneous (full-
duplex) mode.
O0 decoded signalling, received from one of the attached media as specified in 8.4.2(b) and
8.4.2(c). The interface mode is as specified in 8.4.1 (a).
c) The amount by which the preamble, whch is the initial sequence of PhPDUs in each trans-
mission, should be extended. its range is zero to seven units of extension, encoded in three data
bits as O (000) to 7 (111). The value for this parameter after activation of the DTE to DCE reset
service is O (000). (See note 2 of 6.2.3.)
d) The amount by which the mandatoiy post-transmission gap, which is the period of non-
transmission between successive sequencesof PhPDUs, should be extended. Its range is zero to
seven units of extension, encoded in three data bits as O (000) to 7 (111). The value for this
parameter after activation of the DTE to DCE reset service is O (000). (Seenate 3 of 6.2.3.)
Following its initial two bits of (Ol), the pathdiversity control message specifies additional configu-
ration data commonly required for management and fault-assessment of redundant paths: separate
transmission and reception controls for each of the attached redundant media (channels and paths).
The defined componentsof this message are, in order of transmission:
a) Two bits of zero (00), which provide quartet and octet alignment within the message for the
following fields.
b) The algorithm for choosing between redundant media as the source of received signalling
when more than one of the media is enabled for reception, coded in four bits as shown. The
value for this parameter after activation of the DTE to DCE reset service is 0000.
O000 - The medium selected for reception should be the first medium on which signalling
which is suitable for receiver-training is detected.
c) The selection of whether reception is enabled (O) or inhibited (1) on each of eight or fewer
redundant media, coded in eighî consecutive bits for channels 1 through 8, respectively. (See
table 1.) The value for this parameter after activation of the DTE to DCE reset service is
0000 0000.
d) The selection of whether transmission is enabled (O) or inhibited (1) on each of eight or fewer
redundant media, coded in eighî consecutive bits for channels 1 through 8, respectively. (See
table 1.) The value for this parameter after activation of the DTE to DCE reset service is
0000 0000.
e) The amount of post-transmission gap extension due to potential signal skew between
redundant media. Its range is zero to seven units of extension, encoded in three data bits as
O (000) to 7 (111). The value for this parameter after activation of the DTE to DCE reset service
is O (000).(See8.4.l(d), 8.4.2@),and note 3 of 6.2.2.)
Following its initial two bits of (lo), the coding of extendible configuration messages may be imple-
mentation dependent. The structure and form of extendible configuration messages shall be the
same as the basic configuration message specified in 8.4.1.
Following its initial two bits of (1l), the coding of extendible status-report invocation messages may
be implementation dependent. The structure and form of extendible status-report invocation
messages shall be the same as the basic configuration message specified in 8.4.1. The information
specified shall select some DCE-internalsource of received signalling, and if the DCE-intemaldata-
source mode is status-reporting (see 8.4.l(b)), then the DCE shall generate a multidata-octet
message, padded as necessary to an octet multiple, and shall report it using the DCE to DTE media-
activity indication and message-reportingservices.
These reports are generated within the DCE upon request, and reported when the DCE-internal-
data-source is intemal-statusreport. (See 8.4.1(b).)

NOTE The Medium Dependent Sublayer (MDS)is pat of the Data Communication Equipment (DCE). It etchanges secial
-
PhSDU sequences across the DTE DCE interíaœ specified in dause 8 and it communicates encoded bits acToss Ihe

9.1 PhPDU
Conversely the MDS shall remove preamble and delimiters from a received PhPDU to produce a
corresponding serial sequence of PhSDUs. If a non-binary data unit is detected in the received
PhSDU sequence, the MDS shall immediately stop transferring PhSDUs to the DIS, the MDS shall
report an error, and the MDS shall indicate the end of activity to the DIS when it happens.
Data units shall be encoded by the MDS for application to the MAU using the code shown in figure 5
(Manchester Biphase L). The encoding rules are formally given in figure 6 and table 5.

Decoding shall normally be the opposite of encoding. At reception, the MDS shall verify that each
symbol is encoded in accordance with figure 6 and table 5 and shall detect the following errors:
a) invalid Manchestercode;
b) half-bit-slip errors.
The option of automatic polarity detection of the received Manchester encoded signal shall be
requiredwhere it is specified in the relevant MAU.
The following sequence of symbols, shown from left to right in order of transmission, shall imme-
diately precede the PhSDU sequence to delimit the start of a frame:
The MDS shall only accept a received signal burst as a PhPDU after verifying this sequence and
shall remove this sequence before transferring the PhSDU sequence to the DIS.
The following sequence of symbols, shown from left to righî in order of transmission, shall imme-
diately follow the PhSDU sequence to delimit the end of a frame:
The MDS shall remove this sequence from the PhPDU before transferring the PhSDU sequence to
the DIS. The MDS shall report to the corresponding Data Link Layer entity any frames received via
the medium which do not include this sequence within 300 octets of start of frame (from beginning
of start delimiter) as Ph-DATA indication (PhlDU, frame-too-long). The MDS shall report to the
corresponding Data Link Layer entity, via the corresponding DIS, any frames received via the
medium which have an end delimiter which is not located at an octet boundary as Ph-DATA
indication (PhlDU, received-timing-error).
9.6 Preamble
In order to synchronize bit times a preamble shall be transmitted at the beginning of each PhPDU
consisting of the following sequence of bits, shown from left to right in order of transmission:
1,0,1,0,1*0,1,0.
The period may be extended, but not reduced, by Station Management as given in table 1. A
preamble extension sequence as listed in table 1 shall be defined as the following sequence of bas,
shown from left to right in order of transmission:
1,0,1,0,1,0,1,0.
9.7 Synchmnizatbn
After the reception of the fourth bit of the frame and until end of frame or frame termination the
receiver shall detect and report half-bit-slip errors.
NOTE 1 -This syndVonira(i0n spedñcam aikm üw kss of bur bits ofthe pmmbie.
After the preamble, half-bit-slip enors shall be reported as Ph-DATA indication (PhlDU, error).
-
NOTE 2 M-bit-dip errors can be detected as exoBssive bit csll jim and/or excBssivB variation in bit period.
9.0 Post-transmissiongap
After transmission of a PhPDU there shall be a minimum period during which a subsequent trans-
mission shall not commence. For the same minimum period after reception of a PhPDU the receiv-
ing Physical Layer entity shall ignore all received signalling. An MDS entity shall set a minimum post
transmission period of four nominal bit times. The period may be extended, but not reduced, by
Station Management as given in table 1 or by an associated MAU entity. A gap extension sequence
as listed in table 1 shall be defined as four nominal bit times,
-
NOTE The MAU transmit eMbleMisabietime may reduce the duralion of siienœ between frames.
If the device is configured (by Station Management) to receive concurrently on more than one
channel then the maximum accepted differential delay between any two active channels, as
measured from the first PhPDU of a start delimiter. shall not exceed five nominal bit times. This
period may be extended, but not reduced, by Station Management as given in table 1. A gap
extension sequence as listed in table 1 shall be defined as four nominal bit times. The value of post-
transmission gap shall be greater than the value of interchannel skew.
NOTE -The Medium Attachment Unit (MAU) is an apbanally separats part of a communication element which connects to the
medium directly or via passive components. For ektricai signailing variants Ihe MAU is Ihe ûansceiver,which provides level

10.2 Service specifications
The Transmit Signal service (TxS) shall transfer the encoded PhPDU signal sequence across the
MDS - MAU interface to the MAU, where the sequence shall be transmitted on to the medium if
the Transmit Enable (TxE) is set to logic 1 (high level).
The Receive Signal service (RxS) shall transfer the encoded PhPDU signal sequence or silence
across the MAU - MDS interface to the MDS. The RxS shall echo the signal transmitted via TxS by
simultaneously receiving the transmissionsfrom the medium.
The Transmit Enable service (TxE) shall provide the MDS with the facility to enable the MAU to
transmit. The TxE shall be set to logic 1 (high level) at the commencement of preamble trans-
mission and then set to logic O (low level) after the last bit of the end delimiter has been transmitted.
If redundant media are in use and the method of implementing redundancy is to receive on all
channels but transmit on only one then the channel (cable) which is currently used for transmission
shall be selected by setting its TxE to logic 1 (high level). Ail channels which are not currently in use
for transmissionshall be disabled by setting the TxE to logic O (low level).
If the optional Loopback Enable (LbE) service shown in table 1 is used it shall disable the final out-
put stage of the MAU transmit circuit, connect the output of the previous stage of the MAU transmit
circuit to the MAU receive circuit and disconnect the MAU receive circuit from the medium. The
state of the Loopback Enable shall not change while the MAU is transmitting or receiving.

Rule 1: One Fieldbus shall be capable of communication between two and 32 devices, all operating
at the same bit rate.
NOTE 1 - Rule 1 does not predude the use of mote than the specified number of devices in an instailedsystem.
Rule 2: A fully loaded (maximum number of connected devices) 2.5 Mbitls voltage-mode Fieldbus
segment shall have a total cable length, including branches, between any two devices, of up to
500 m.
NOTE 2-500 m maximum cabie h g t h is the requirementfor amkrmance b Ihipart of IEC 1158 but th¡ does not preclude
the use of ionger lengths in an instailed system.
Rule 3: The total number of waveform regenerations by repeaters and active couplers between any
two devices shall not exceed four.
Rule 4: The maximum propagation delay between any two devices shall not exceed 40 nominal bit
times.
NOTE 3 - For efficiencyof the network. Ihat part of the turnaround time of any device cn the network caused by a PhE
between the end of a receivedframe and the beginning of üw transmitted frame containing an associated immediate response
should not exœed 5 bit times, no more than 2 bit times of which should be due to lhe MAU. As it is not mandatory b expose

interfere with transactions between other communication elements for more than 1 ms.
Rule 7: In polarity sensitive systems the medium twisted pairs shall have distinctly marked conduc-
tors which uniquely identify individual conductors. The polarization shall be maintained at all

b) Attenuation distortion: The configuration of the bus (trunk length and number of devices)
shall be such that between any two devices:
where fr is the frequency conesponding to the bit rate. Attenuation shall be monotonic for all
frequencies from 0,25 fr to 1,25 fr (625 kHz to 3,125 MHr);

NOTE 4 Rule 8 minimizes restrictions on bunk length. nunber of d e v i etc. by Cpecifying only lhe transmission iimitationc
imposed by combinationsof lhese factors. Differentcombinations may be used depending on the needs of the appiikah.
NOTE 5 - The main cause of a iarge mismatch is the #incentration of severai axiplws on a short lenglhof Ihet m k .
If the distance between twoconceaitivecouplers is less Ihan 2 m Ihe propagation delay between h m is smaller fhan 10 ns

A concentration of coupiers where the distance between two consecutivecoupiers is less Ihan 2 m is defined as a dusîer.
In order to comply with the Rule & using devices with an input impedance of minimum value (8 W) and rerelength spurs, it is
recommendedthat a duster wwld not indude more than four coupiers.
Using devices with an input impedance significanay higher than the minimum value WOUM allow dusters with more couplers.
Using mzerelength spurs could require dusters to have fewer than íour coupiers.
NOTE 6 -It is possible b reduce the mismatchingdue to a duster by the following means:
Rule 9: The following rules shall apply to systems implemented with redundant media:
a) each channel (cable) shall comply with the netwofk configuration rules;
d) if the system is configured (by Station Management) to transmit on m e than one channel
simulîaneously then the propagation time difference between any two devices on any two chan-
nels shall not exceed five bit times:
e) channel numbers shall be maintained throughout the Fieldbus, ¡.e. channels 1.2.3 ... from

(informative)
The preferred Fieldbus cable is specified in 11.7.2 for conformance testing, and it is referred to as
type "A" Fieldbus cable.
-
NOTE 1 This cabie w9l probably be used in new instalhbions.
Other types of cables can be used for Fieldbus wiring, other than for conformance testing. The
alternate preferred Fieldbus cable is a multiple, twisted pair cable with an overall shield, hereafter
referredto as Type "B" Fieldbuscable.
-
NOTE 2 This CaMe will probably be used in both new and retrofit installations whem multiple Fmldbusces are N n in tíw
same area of lha user's piant.
A less preferred Fieldbus cable is a single or multiple, twisted pair cable without any shield, here-
after referred to as Type "C" Fieldbus cable. The least preferred Fieldbus cable is a multiple
conductor cable without twisted pairs, hereafter referred to as Type "D"Fieldbus cable.
-
NOTE 3 Type 'C' and 'o'CaMeS win mainly be used in retroñt appäcaüons.They will have some limitations in Feklbuc
distance and SM ratios that (he Type 'A'and 'B" cabies do not have. This may pledude the use of Type 'C' and 'D" cam h

Using the network configuration rules specified in 11.2.2, the maximum lengths for Type "B," "C"
and "D" cables, including all spurs, typically will be:
- Type"D" - 200m
NOTE -These typicai guidelines do not supersede the Network ConfigurationRules of 11.22.
Allowable spur lengths for either bus or tree topology are dependent on the number of comrnuni-
cation elements on the Fieldbus. Table 8.2 relates the recommended number of communication
elements to spur length. Maximum spur lengths are the same for Type "A," "B,""C," and "D" cables.
The table assumes one communicationelement per spur. When a spur with passive trunk coupler
has more than one communicationelement, the length of that spur should be reduced by 30 m per
communication element. As the recommended maximum total spur length is 120 m, the maximum
number of communication elements per spur should be 4.
