IEC 62453-306:2009 provides information for integrating the INTERBUS® technology into the FDT standard (IEC 62453-2). Communication Profile Family 6 (commonly known as INTERBUS®) defines communication profiles based on IEC 61158-2 Type 8, IEC 61158-3-8, IEC 61158-4-8, IEC 61158-5-8, and IEC 61158-6-8. The basic profiles CP 6/1 (INTERBUS) and CP 6/3 (INTERBUS minimal subset) are defined in IEC 61784-1. This part, in conjunction with the other parts of the first edition of the IEC 62453 series cancels and replaces IEC/PAS 62453-1, IEC/PAS 62453-2, IEC/PAS 62453-3, IEC/PAS 62453-4 and IEC/PAS 62453-5 published in 2006, and constitutes a technical revision. This bilingual version (2013-09) corresponds to the monolingual English version, published in 2009-06.

This publication is to be read in conjunction with IEC 62453-2:2009.
