Hardware
Description
Segment 1...4
FOUNDATION Fieldbus or PROFIBUS PA
segments
HD2-DM-A
Advanced Diagnostic Module plugged onto
the Fieldbus Power Hub motherboard.
Diagnostic Server
Server or Cabinet PC on which the
FieldConnex
R
Diagnostic Server (FDS) is
running. The Server is connected to the Ad-
vanced Diagnostic Modules via RS 485 diag-
nostic bus.
Operator Application
Application on which the Asset Management
or Operator System are running. An OPC-
DA client may run on this Application.
Maintenance Application Host Application for the FDT-Frame applica-
tion.
Converter
Device that provides serial Ethernet to
RS 485 connectivity. Because the
FieldConnex
R
Diagnostic Server (FDS) is
working on a serial Com Port only, a convert-
er is required to connect the FDS to the RS
485 Diagnostic Bus in the field cabinets. The
common solution is a connection via Ether-
net/RS 485 Converter.
Interface
Description
OPC-DA
Standardized interface to access data from a
process control system (OPC = OLE for Pro-
cess Control).
OPC-AE
Standardized interface to provide alarm and
event notifications on demand.
