Validate Device Data
Depending on the wireless management system you are using, there are several ways to validate that
each device is transmitting data.
! Note
Initial publication of measurements may take some time after devices have joined the network. After
the initial period, during which the network is forming, measurements will be published at the
configured rate.
• Divigraph ISA100 Gateway device manager - in the user interface, verify that the publication status
indicator (icon) is coloured and the measurements are displayed in the “Readings” section.
• Honeywell OneWireless gateway device manager - verify the measurements are displayed in the
Honeywell user interface and verify that the “Input Publication” parameters are active.
• Yokagawa YFGW410 device manager - verify that the operation status is "Published” (for sensors) or
“Not Published” (for NR1210 repeater devices).
• Emerson Wireless Gateway device manager - verify that the dynamic variables (primary, secondary,
tertiary and quartenary device variables) are being published.
! Note
If a VP Series 2000 ISA100 repeater shows "Session Timeout" or a VP Series 2000 ISA100 sensor is not
publishing data in a Yokogawa system:
• Ensure that the correct CF has been applied.
• Ensure that the “Publication Period” and “Stale Limit” parameter values are correct.
A VP Series 2000 repeater will function correctly and repeat the data from other devices even with
the operational status indicating "Session Timeout".
Data Output
Static overall measurements can be transmitted using Modbus, GCI, or HART-IP. Honeywell gateways
support OPC with additional licensing. Alternatively, you can use 3
rd
party software to publish Modbus
data using an OPC server.
To create or import a wireless configuration and enable data collection into System 1 18.2 or later, use
the Ranger Pro plugin interface to the device manager.
! Note
To avoid deleting VP Series 2000 historic data, do not change measurement units or sub-units after
you begin collecting data in System 1.
GCI and HART-IP are the only methods that support sending sensor spectrum and time base data. A valid
System 1 device license and Ranger Pro plugin is required to acquire dynamic data.
