HART Communication Interface
2.2 Connecting the Current HART, CH1
Communication is via the HART protocol, using:
● HART Communicator (load 230 to 500 Ω)
● PC with HART modem, on which appropriate software is installed, for example
SIMATIC PDM (load 230 to 500 Ω)
● Control system which can communicate via the HART protocol, for example SIMATIC PCS7

Connecting the Current HART, CH1
Note
4 to 20 mA output
It is not required to use shielded cables for the pure 4 to 20 mA current output.
Note
HART communication
It is recommended by the FieldComm Group (FCG) to use shielded cables for the HART
communication.
Note
Passive channels only
Channel 1 power supply must be separated from that for channels 2 to 4.
Signal return (or common) can be joined.
