DTM can be applied to any devices, such as sensors, actuators remote I/O, drives and so on. FDT supports current investment. FDT supports all functions of device. FDT is independent from any communication protocols such as HART, Profibus, and FOUNDATION Fieldbus and so on. FDT can handle multiple protocols.
