6 HART Transmitter Configuration for
ST 700 Standard Transmitter
6.1 Overview
Each new ST 700 Standard Pressure Transmitter configured for HART protocol is shipped from the
factory with a basic configuration database installed. This basic configuration database must be edited
or revised to meet the requirements of your process system. The process in this section assumes that
you will use the
Field Device Communicator (FDC)
application for HART configuration tasks. The
FDC
application provides the facilities for the online and offline configuration of Transmitters
operating with HART protocol
Online configuration requires that the Transmitter and MC Toolkit are connected and communication
between the two has been established. Online configuration provides a set of functions with which to
perform various operations on a HART communication network through an active communication
link. These operations primarily include configuration, calibration, monitoring, and diagnostics.
Typically, these operations could be realized through various constructs exposed by the Device
Description (DD) file. In addition, the
FDC
application provides some functions for convenient
execution of these functions.
Offline Configuration refers to configuring a device when the device is not physically present or
communicating with the application. This process enables you to create and save a configuration for a
device, even when the device is not there physically. Later when the device becomes available with
live communication, the same configuration can be downloaded to the device. This feature enables
you to save on device commissioning time and even helps you to replicate the configuration in
multiplicity of devices with lesser efforts. Currently, FDC does not support creating offline
configuration. However, it supports importing of offline configuration from FDM R310 or later
versions. The configurations thus imported can be downloaded to the device from FDC.
The following are the tasks to perform for importing offline configuration in the FDC software and
then downloading it to the device:
Create offline configuration template in FDM
Save the configuration in FDM in FDM format.
Import the offline configuration in FDC
Download the offline configuration to the device
Note:
For details on creating and using offline configuration, refer to the
Offline configuration
section
in the
FDM User’s Guide
.
6.1.1 Personnel Requirements
The information and procedures in this section are based on the assumption that the person
accomplishing configuration tasks is fully qualified and knowledgeable on the use of the MC Toolkit
and is intimately familiar with the ST 700 Standard SmartLine Pressure Transmitters. Therefore,
detailed procedures are supplied only in so far as necessary to ensure satisfactory configuration. The
other HART configuration Tools are Honeywell Experion in conjunction with FDM, iDTMs running
on FDM or Pactware, and Emerson 375/475. The organization of Device Configuration and
Parameter Descriptions on page 35 is provided in Table 12.
