9.5.2 Operation
The Field Communicator and the device's local display use almost the same procedures to
operate the signal converter. The online help for each menu item refers to the function number
given to each menu item on the local device display. Protection of settings is the same as on the
device's local display.
The Field Communicator always saves a complete configuration for communication with AMS.
9.6 Asset Management Solutions (AMS
®
)
The Asset Management Solutions Device Manager (AMS
®
) is a PC program from Emerson
Process Management which is designed to configure and manage HART
®
, PROFIBUS and
Foundation Fieldbus devices. Device Descriptions (DDs) are used to integrate different devices
into the AMS
®
.
9.6.1 Installation
Please read the README.txt file in the Installation Kit.
If the Device Description has not been installed at this time, install the Installation Kit HART ®
AMS. You can download this .exe file from our website.
For installation data, refer to the "AMS Intelligent Device Manager Books Online" section "Basic
AMS Functionality > Device Configurations > Installing Device Types > Procedures > Install
device types from media".
9.6.2 Operation
9.6.3 Parameter for the basic configuration
Due to AMS requirements and conventions, there are differences when operating the signal
converter with AMS and operating using the local keyboard. The service menu parameters are
not supported and simulation is only possible for current outputs. The online help for each
parameter contains its function number as a reference to the local device display.
INFORMATION!
The Field Communicator will not give you access to the service menu. A simulation is only
possible for current outputs.
INFORMATION!
