Description
Squawk and Find
Device
New commands to support commissioning and
troubleshooting of HART devices in multi-drop and multi-pair
cable installations.
Series 8 I/O IOMs do not have an independent HART device block. Instead the HART
data is fully contained within an Analog Input or Analog Output block and:
enabled when HENABLE parameter is set to TRUE (This is done on the Analog
Input channel block HART Configuration tab)
becomes an Experion "tagged" entity and can generate alarms based on its "tagged"
name in Station.
When Analog Input and Analog Output channel blocks are enabled, five additional
HART tabs become exposed. These tabs are used exclusively for details about the
attached HART device and are identical for Analog Input and Analog Output channels.
These tabs are as follows:
HART Configuration
HART Identification
HART Notifications
HART Device Status
HART Variables
