Typical Applications
Depending on the kind of usage Fuchs recommends two dif-
ferent kinds of diagnostic application structures:
•
The local application structure should be used for smaller field-
bus plants where OPC integration is not necessary and super-
vision is performed from all-in-one maintenance PC.
•
The remote application structure should be used for large field-
bus plants with permanent OPC integration and supervision tak-
ing place from several maintenance PCs throughout the plant.

Local Application Structure
By performing a complete installation of the FieldConnex
R
Diagnostic
Manager and PACT
ware
TM
all software components are running on the
same Windows PC (maintenance PC).
The Com Port Converter is addressed via Ethernet. It converts the sig-
nal from Ethernet to the RS 485 powered Diagnostic bus (see chapter
5.3.2). The local application structure comprises of:
Required Software Components:
•
PACT

FDT
Field Device Tool is a specification defining
how the DTM interacts with a host computer
or software. An FDT frame application is a
PC-based software tool which contains many
DTMs for configuration, monitoring and pro-
gramming field devices. The Diagnostic
DTMs are run by this application.
DTM
Device Type Manager that represents the
FDS, ports and connected HD2-DM-A mod-
ules.
A DTM is the device's configuration and man-
agement software. It contains the graphic
user dialogues and undertakes device con-
figuration and diagnosis. A DTM is embed-
ded into a FDT frame application, e.g.
PACT
ware
TM
or in control systems with FDT
interfaces.
The DTM for the Diagnostic Modules is
called Diagnostic Manager.
