Configuration

5.1

We recommend that you configure the device on the shop floor via a wired connection using

a HART modem. See chapter 4.3

1. Define all basic settings such as wireless communication parameters (Network ID, Join

Key, Join Mode) and identification parameters (Long Tag, Polling Address) using a HART

modem.

2. Make the device join the WirelessHART network.

3. Once the device has joined the WirelessHART network, configure the burst mode param-

eters, event notifications, and other application settings using a HART modem.

4. Disconnect the HART modem and install the device in the field.

Once the device is installed in the field, you can change the configuration of the device via a

wireless connection using the WirelessHART Gateway.

Wireless Configuration via the WirelessHART Gateway

We assume that the WirelessHART Gateway is installed and configured correctly according to

the manual of the WirelessHART Gateway. Furthermore, we assume that the device to be

configured has joined the WirelessHART network.

1. Start your PACTware
