Configuration via Device Type Manager (DTM) and
PACTware
If using the device type manager (DTM) and PACTware to configure the WirelessHART
gateway, the WirelessHART gateway must be connected via Ethernet or RS-485.
Configuration via DTM is identical to the configuration via web interface
with the
exception of a few options that are pointed out in the relevant sections. Thus, after you have
added the communication DTM and the device(s) in PACTware, you can follow the instructions
for configuration via web interface.
You can download PACTware, the WirelessHART DTM, the HART IP Communication DTM,
and the HART Communication DTM from www.pepperl-fuchs.com.
