Introducing Map in Industrial Communications Networks

By Colin Pye

MAP (Manufacturing Automation Protocol) was developed to allow incompatible equipment, installed on the factory floor to communicate cost effectively. Much of the computer based equipment in industry has been installed in an unplanned way and is difficult to integrate, MAP is a computer architecture based on international standards which allows computerized equipment to be networked. The book focuses on the most popular form of MAP, MAP v 3.0, and describes the main products and systems available and outlines key areas of specification.
