2.5 Interconnection Between
DPharp and the HART
Configuration Tool
The HART configuration tool can interface with the
transmitter from the control room, the transmitter
site, or any other wiring termination point in the
loop. To communicate, the tool must be connected
to the signal line in parallel with the transmitter; the
connections are non-polarized. The HART digital
signal is superimposed on the analog signal. Figure
2.2 illustrates the wiring connections for direct
interface at the transmitter site for the DPharp. The
HART configuration tool can be used for remote
access from any terminal strip as well.

When configuring the loop, make sure that the
external load resistance is within the range in the
figure below.
(Note) With an intrinsically safe transmitter, external load
resistance includes safety barrier resistance.
