Abstract
A method for initializing a communication link between a field device and a control unit according to a communication protocol is described. The communication protocol defines a broadcasting message with a data area. From the field device, a broadcasting message is generated and transmitted according to the communication protocol with a first datum in the data area. The first datum determines whether a communication connection is possible or not. The broadcasting message is received by the control unit and then, when the first datum determines the possibility of the communication connection, the communication connection is initialized by the control unit.
