Background
The field bus is one of the hot spots of the technical development in the current automation field, and is known as a computer local area network in the automation field. The field bus provides powerful technical support for realizing real-time and reliable data communication between nodes of a distributed control system.
The traditional direct I/O access mode is to change field signals into weak current signals, connect electrical analog quantity and switching value signals to an I/O interface of the DCS between the devices one to one through a hard-wired cable, enter the DCS for configuration, and realize the monitoring of electrical devices. In the existing I/O access technology, because electrical quantity is connected to an I/O cabinet of a DCS between electronic devices through cables on site, the number of I/O cards of the DCS is large, the number of cables is large, the cable installation engineering quantity is large, and the reliability of the DCS is influenced by interference caused by long-distance cable introduction; all information content needs to be collected to a data acquisition system of the DCS in a centralized manner, so that risks are not dispersed, and the reliability of the system is influenced; the analog quantity must be sent to DCS through the electric quantity transducer, and the anti-jamming capability is poor. From the above, when the conventional electrical control system is applied to the guide frame climbing aerial work platform, the following technical defects may exist:
a) Because the number of the actuating mechanisms is large and the actuating mechanisms are dispersed, the distance between the stations on a communication line is long, and centralized control is difficult to perform;
b) Because the guide frame climbs the platform long and has the multiunit stand structure, lead to whole equipment communication distance far away to influence communication quality.
