1.4.3 HART
Protocol
The FV-40 Series Flame Detectors use the HART protocol.
HART Communication is a bi-directional industrial field communication
protocol used to communicate between intelligent field instruments and host
systems. HART is the global standard for smart process instrumentation and
the majority of smart field devices installed in plants worldwide are HART-
enabled. HART is available in wiring options 2 and 3, see Table 18.
HART technology is easy to use and very reliable.
Through the HART connection, you are able to perform:
Detector set-up
Detector troubleshooting
Detector health and status
For more details, refer to the
HART Manual 087-0057
.
1.4.4 RS-485
Modbus
For more advanced communications, the FV-40 Series detectors have an
RS-485 Modbus-compatible output that provides data communication from a
network (up to 247 detectors) to a host computer or universal controller for
central monitoring. This feature allows for reduced installation costs, easy
maintenance and local or remote diagnostic tools.
