The Importance of IEEE 1451 Citat: "...At the process connection level, 1451 provides standard ways of creating totally self-describing measurement and control devices. This allows you to choose best-in-class products from your preferred vendors — true plug&play. Imagine plugging on a new sensor and having it announce its availability ... with information like its serial number, calibration factors, and accuracy specifications. During installation location information can also be loaded so that you can turn on a totally self-describing system...With 1451, you are not only free to choose vendors and devices you want, but you are free to choose the network that is most appropriate for your application..."
