Features: This textbook consists of 9 chapters, broadly divided into three parts: the fundamental part, the communication part of measurement and control systems, and the communication part of automatic test systems. Chapter 1 is an introduction, which covers the framework structures of communication-based automated systems, intelligent instruments, virtual instruments, and automatic test systems, as well as the main research contents of measurement and control system communication. Chapter 2 introduces the fundamentals of data communication, including basic concepts, principles, and methods. Chapter 3 discusses simple interface communication technology, introducing the application of microcomputer serial communication/parallel communication interface technology in measurement and control systems. Chapter 4 covers shared memory area communication technology, describing the physical and logical structures of CPU intelligent devices based on shared memory, as well as the relevant technologies, methods, and examples. Chapter 5 focuses on standard bus communication, primarily introducing two industrial-standard buses—Multibus and STD—as well as common issues and examples when multiple CPUs use standard internal buses to form multi-microcomputer systems. Chapter 6 addresses industrial control computer networks, covering basic concepts of computer networks, communication protocols, industrial local area network standards, TCP/IP protocols, service models, and model examples based on WinSock. Chapter 7 discusses fieldbuses, introducing the basic concepts of fieldbuses, as well as LonWorks technology and the LON bus. Chapter 8 covers the GPIB bus, providing a detailed introduction to the basic concepts, principles, and methods of GPIB. Chapter 9 introduces instrument-specific buses, including the composition, principles, and structures of CAMAC, VXI, and PXI buses.
