2 Download and installation
Download the latest drivers from http://www.phoenixcontact.net/qr/1003824/softw. Unzip the folder and run the Setup
utility following the onscreen instructions. The Setup utility installs the USB driver, the DTM files, and a GW HART USB
MODEM test utility tool.
3 Connecting the GW USB HART MODEM
Insert the USB connector into an open USB Type A port on the PC after the USB driver has been installed. Carefully
connect the mini-hook test leads to the HART device. Most HART devices have test loop connectors for this purpose.
Position the test leads so they cannot touch and cause a short circuit.
Make sure you always use the latest documentation.
