RESUMO

The interoperability among devices or software based on fieldbus technologies is becoming increasingly requested and demanded because it allows the integration of devices or software from different manufacturers. The integration is implemented through a common communication language used among the different heterogeneous technologies. In the FOUNDATION fieldbus configurator software is used to provide interoperability among devices a proprietary and complex technology (to be developed by manufacturers), known as Electronic Device Description (EDD) that is defined by the fieldbus Foundation. Meanwhile, open and non-proprietary software technologies have presented a great growth in the last years, especially the eXtensible Markup language (XML) technology, which has became worldwide known due to the integration of internet (heterogeneous) applications. This study proposes a new open, non-proprietary and simple (for manufacturer development) device description based on XML, that is named Open-EDD (Open Electronic Device Description). The creation of this technology includes the definition of the language Open-EDDML (Open Electronic Device Description Markup Language), modeling the XML Schema, projecting and implementing the parser. This technology is validated by integrating it to an existent configurator and testing it using FF devices.
