Industrial Ethernet steams powerfully along, but can it be more than you really need? Are there times when simpler, hard-working device-level networks are a better choice? Senior Technical Editor Dan Hebert reports his findings in this issue's cover story about how to "Go With What Works."

Also in the Q2 issue: Control systems and their networks now extend to field devices, so Ian Verhappen reminds us that today, a multimeter isn't the only troubleshooting tool you'll need; and get a better understanding of "How Wireless Gets Its Juice."
