Network Id And Join Key; Rosemount Thum ™ Adapter - Emerson IEC 62591 Instruction Manual

IEC 62591 Wireless Interface Instruction Manual (for ROC800-Series and FloBoss 107)

3.1.2 Network ID and Join Key

3.1.3 Rosemount THUM
Revised June-2018
:
Notes
▪ Tag names cannot exceed 32 characters, and tag names must be
unique to the wireless network.
▪ Use upper-case (capital) letters for tags names; this corresponds to
how the program internally stores tag names.
The individual devices should fit into a general organizational plan for
your fields. By identifying logical groups and pre-assigning devices to
those groups, you can eliminate guesswork during commissioning,
efficiently define networks, and more quickly begin to acquire data.
: An important restriction in planning networks is to know that a
Note
network can have only one Network ID, one Join Key, one Field
Link, and one controller (a ROC800 supporting up to 60 devices
or a FB107 supporting up to 20 devices).
A Network ID defines one logical grouping of WirelessHART devices,
all of which send their information to one Field Link. (You define a
device's Network ID when you first configure the device with a 375
Field Communicator or Field Tools' HART Device Configurator.)
: A Network ID cannot be all zeros (such as 00000).
Note
The Join Key is the password that allows a device to access its defined
network. During configuration, you also provide the device with its
network-specific Join Key. During configuration and commissioning,
ROCLINK 800 uses the Network ID and Join Key to create the network
(see Figure 3-3).
™
Adapter
: Each THUM adapter supports only one wired HART device.
Note
Rosemount's THUM™ Adapter provides wireless connectivity to a
wired HART device. If you have already commissioned a wired HART
device into your network and want to connect it to a THUM Adapter,
you must first decommission the device, attach the THUM Adapter, and
then re-commission the device. For further information about THUM
Adapters, refer to:
