List of automation protocols

{{Short description|none}} This is a list of communication protocols used for the automation of processes (industrial or otherwise), such as for building automation, power-system automation, automatic meter reading, and vehicular automation.  ==Process automation protocols== * AS-i – Actuator-sensor interface, a low level 2-wire bus establishing power and communications to basic digital and analog devices *BSAP – Bristol Standard Asynchronous Protocol, developed by Bristol Babcock Inc. *CC-Link Industrial Networks – Supported by the CLPA *CIP (Common Industrial Protocol) – can be treated as application layer common to DeviceNet, CompoNet, ControlNet and EtherNet/IP *ControlNet – an implementation of CIP, originally by Allen-Bradley *DeviceNet – an implementation of CIP, originally by Allen-Bradley *DF-1 - used by Allen-Bradley ControlLogix, CompactLogix, PLC-5, SLC-500, and MicroLogix class devices *DNP3 - a protocol used to communicate by industrial control and utility SCADA systems *DirectNet – Koyo / Automation Direct proprietary, yet documented PLC interface *EtherCAT *Ethernet Global Data (EGD) – GE Fanuc PLCs (see also SRTP) *EtherNet/IP – IP stands for "Industrial Protocol". An implementation of CIP, originally created by Rockwell Automation *Ethernet Powerlink – an open protocol managed by the Ethernet POWERLINK Standardization Group (EPSG). *FINS, Omron's protocol for communication over several networks, including Ethernet. *FOUNDATION fieldbus – H1 & HSE *HART Protocol *HostLink Protocol, Omron's protocol for communication over serial links. *Interbus, Phoenix Contact's protocol for communication over serial links, now part of PROFINET IO *MECHATROLINK – open protocol originally developed by Yaskawa, supported by the MMA *MelsecNet, and MelsecNet II, /B, and /H, supported by Mitsubishi Electric. *Modbus PEMEX *Modbus Plus *Modbus RTU or ASCII or TCP *MPI – Multi Point Interface *OSGP – The Open Smart Grid Protocol, a widely use protocol for smart grid devices built on ISO/IEC 14908.1 *OpenADR – Open Automated Demand Response; protocol to manage electricity consuming/controlling devices *Optomux – Serial (RS-422/485) network protocol originally developed by Opto 22 in 1982. The protocol was openly documented<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.opto22.com/site/documents/drilldown.aspx?aid=1941&title=Optomux+Protocol+Guide |title=Optomux Protocol Guide |publisher=Opto22.com |date=2012-01-08 |accessdate=2012-09-01}}</ref> and over time used for industrial automation applications. * Process Image Exchange Protocol (PieP) – An Open Fieldbus Protocol *Profibus – by PROFIBUS & PROFINET International (PI) *PROFINET - by PROFIBUS & PROFINET International (PI) *RAPIEnet – Real-time Automation Protocols for Industrial Ethernet *Honeywell SDS – Smart Distributed System – Originally developed by Honeywell. Currently supported by Holjeron. *SERCOS III, Ethernet-based version of SERCOS real-time interface standard *SERCOS interface, Open Protocol for hard real-time control of motion and I/O *GE SRTP – GE Fanuc PLCs *Sinec H1 – Siemens *SynqNet – Danaher *TTEthernet – TTTech
