Adding A Hart Instrument To Mc5-Is' Instrument Database - BEAMEX MC5-IS User Manual

Adding a HART Instrument to MC5-IS' Instrument Database

HART and MC5-IS' Basic Mode
MC5-IS has a semi-automatic util-
ity to add HART instruments to
MC5-IS' instrument database.

Select /
to Database
from the Basic
Mode's HART Menu. Continue by
selecting which output is to be
added, analog or digital.
The following instrument data is
acquired from the HART instru-
ment:
Input Quantity
Input Range
Output Quantity
Output Range
Transfer Function Device ID
Setpoint Delay
When the instrument is created,
MC5-IS automatically opens the
Instrument Window, from where it
is easy to either check/edit instru-
ment data or start calibrating the
instrument.
It is recommended to edit the instru-
ment data and carefully check the
default values assigned for instru-
ment data fields that do not have
corresponding fields in HART in-
strument data. To edit the instru-
ment data, press the
At least the following instrument data fields should be checked:
Error Calculation Method
Calibration Method
Keep in mind that changing the value of some of the above men-
tioned fields may also require changes in related fields.
Notes.
The HART instrument's TAG is assigned to the Device ID field in MC5-IS.
No Position ID is automatically assigned to the instrument.
QM6 Quality Manager version 1.90a and later support adding instruments
created in MC5-IS to QM6's database. QD3 Quality Documenter cannot
receive instrument data from MC5-IS. It can receive only calibration results
of instruments already existing in QD3's database.
