H1 AND HSE PROTOCOL

H1 and HSE are Protocols used in the Foundation Fieldbus(FF) technology for industrial applications.
What is Foundation Fieldbus ?
It is a digital, two way communications system that serves as a base-level network for factory and
plant automation.
It is a Local Area Network(LAN) that connects sensors, actuators, and control devices for process
control.
H1 :
A low speed protocol that connects field devices and host systems. It operates at 31.25 kbit/s and
provide power and communication over twisted-pair wiring. H1 is the most common implementation of FF.
HSE (HIGH SPEED ETHERNET) :
A high speed protocol that connects input/output subsystems, host systems, linking devices and
gateways. It operates at a speed of 100/1000 Mbit/s and uses standard Ethernet cabling.It is designed for
process automation and mainly used as a control backbone.
H1 :
• Designed for field-level communication.
• Operates at 31.25 kbps.
• Supports real time data transfer.
• It ensures devices communicate at set intervals, which is crucial in a system
where timing impacts safety and efficiency.
• H1 also supports multi-drop installations, which reduce cabling needs.
• The H1 protocol requires some specific hardware.
• It will have device couplers and terminators to organize connections and
prevent signal interference. Also, H1 supports 'power over fieldbus,' which
allows devices to draw power directly from the fieldbus cable, reducing the
need for separate power lines.
H1 :
• H1 operates at various OSI layers. The physical layer defines the wiring and
voltage, while the data link layer manages communication between devices.
On the application layer, H1 organizes how devices communicate to each other
in the system.
• With H1, we can set up, monitor, and control devices, configuring parameters
and tracking status.
• Some clear pros of H1 are its robustness and simplicity, making it ideal for
critical processes that require steady communication.
• But it has a lower bandwidth, meaning it can't handle large volumes of data.
HSE :
• The HSE protocol handles high-speed, high-level communication at Ethernet
speeds—100 Mbps or more.
• This makes it ideal for more complex systems, where fast data transfer is
necessary.
• It’s typically used for communication at the network or process control level,
linking H1 networks and gathering data from multiple devices.
• HSE allows for both real-time and non-real-time data transfer, and it’s much
more scalable than H1.
• It also uses standard Ethernet infrastructure, which is flexible and widely
supported.
• The layout of an HSE network includes Ethernet switches, routers, and
gateways.
• We also have HSE linking devices to bridge H1 networks to HSE networks.
One major benefit is redundancy—using backup networks and components
increases reliability.
HSE :
• HSE uses the TCP/IP stack, which you might know from the internet, but
here it’s applied in an industrial setting. This stack handles both IP-based
communication and ensures data gets where it needs to go on time.
• HSE connects with higher-level systems like SCADA (Supervisory Control
and Data Acquisition) and MES (Manufacturing Execution Systems). It can
gather data from H1 devices, support diagnostics, and perform control actions
remotely.
• HSE provides high-speed communication, it’s also more complex and costly to
implement. It’s powerful but not ideal for simple setups where H1 would
suffice.
