Advanced Diagnostics
General Description
2.1 General System Layout and PCS Integration
The advanced diagnostics system consists of diagnostic gateways (DGW) and advanced diag-
nostic modules (ADM). The ADMs are mounted on FieldConnex
alone motherboard and are connected to each other and to the GDW using a dedicated diag-
nostic bus. The figure below shows an installation example.

Details for the installation are described for:
• FieldConnex
• Stand-alone diagnostic kits in section see chapter 4.2
The PCS connection is actually the choice of the PCS integration method. The following possi-
bilities are available:
• FDS/OPC integration: A server is running on a PC that provides status information to the
PCS via OPC. FDT DTMs are available for detailed diagnostics, monitoring, and commis-
sioning purposes. This integration consists of the following parts:
•
•
For FDS/OPC integration, see chapter 5
• FOUNDATION Fieldbus integration for diagnostic gateway FF field device. This integra-
tion consists of the following parts:
•
•
For FOUNDATION Fieldbus integration, see chapter 6

For many PCS, so-called ADM integration packages exist. These packages provide
step-by-step guides and additional software tools to seamlessly integrate the Field-
Connex ® advanced physical layer diagnostics in a PCS. ADM projects including
segment and field device tags are built directly from the PCS database. Alarming
and the diagnostic manager are tightly integrated into the PCS asset management.
Manual OPC configuration etc. is not required. Check www.pepperl-fuchs.com for
available ADM integration packages.
