2.7 For all fieldbuses, integration through standardization
The X20 system is ideally suited for expanding existing control systems using standard fieldbus technology.
For example, a bus controller allows the X20 system to be used as a powerful I/O expansion unit. Standardized
EDS or GSD description files allow X20 system components to be integrated, configured, and programmed in the
programming environment of a non-B&R system.
