HART communications

Highway Addressable Remote Transducer, HART, is an industrial protocol that is superimposed
on the 4-20 mA signal. It is an open standard, and full details about HART can be obtained from
the HART Communication Foundation website:
HART Communication Foundation (www.hartcomm.org)
The radar device can be configured over the HART network using either the HART
Communicator 375 by Fisher-Rosemount, or a software package. The recommended software
package is the SIMATIC Process Device Manager (PDM) by Siemens.
This device supports HART communication protocol. Signals are processed using Process
Intelligence which has been field-proven in over 1,000,000 applications worldwide (ultrasonic
and radar).

SIMATIC PDM

This software package is designed to permit easy configuration, monitoring, and troubleshooting
of HART devices. The HART EDD for this device was written with SIMATIC PDM in mind and
has been extensively tested with this software. For more information, see Operating via
SIMATIC PDM (Page 59).
B.2

HART Electronic Device Description (EDD)

In order to configure a HART device, the configuration software requires the HART Electronic
Device Description for the instrument in question.
