Abstract

A field device for process automation, composed of at least two components coupleable with one another, wherein, in each of the components, a control/memory unit is provided, in which, in each case, a parameter set with defined parameters is stored, and wherein, for the case, in which the at least two components are coupled with one another, at least one of the control/memory units reads, and compares with one another, the parameter sets stored in the separate control/memory units of the components, and wherein, in the case of a deviation in the parameter sets, the comparing control/memory unit of the control/memory units makes available, to the components coupled with one another, the intersection of the parameters of the parameter sets.
