1. Introduction 1.1 Overview of MC Toolkit Purpose/Scope This manual is intended to facilitate the use of the Honeywell MC Toolkit communications tool. It is assumed that you are skilled in the use and maintenance of process transmitters in process control, or that you are under direct supervision of others with the appropriate skills.
1. Introduction 1.1. Overview of MC Toolkit Product Description The Honeywell Multi Communication (MC) Toolkit is a handheld communication package that enables convenient and reliable communications with smart field devices such as valves, actuators, transmitters etc. MC Toolkit is a smart solution for configuring, calibrating, monitoring, and diagnosing the devices supporting Honeywell Digitally Enhanced (DE) or HART communication protocols.
1. Introduction 1.1. Overview of MC Toolkit MCT202 The MCT202 has following options: • Ruggedized version: Environmentally hardened with no approvals. • Zone 2 approvals: Intrinsically-safe version available with FM Class I, Div 2, and ATEX Zone 2 approvals. • Zone 1 approvals: Intrinsically-safe version available with FM Class I, Div 1, and ATEX Zone 1 approvals.
1. Introduction 1.2. Transmitter Type and Communication Mode Software components The Honeywell MC Toolkit consists of two software applications: • The MC Toolkit application software is used for configuring, calibrating, monitoring, and diagnosing the Honeywell Digital Enhanced (DE) devices. • Field Device Configurator (FDC) application software is used for configuring, calibrating, monitoring, and diagnosing HART devices.
1. Introduction 1.3. Type of Procedure 1.3 Type of Procedure The MC Toolkit is designed to provide these basic functions: • Configuration • Calibration • Monitoring • Diagnostics Depending on combinations of factors such as transmitter type, and communications mode, some procedures such as monitoring the performance of a transmitter can be straightforward and innocuous, but in some cases can also require special preparation and precautions. 1.
1. Introduction 1.4. Prerequisites DE/HART Modem Firmware Version MC Toolkit Release 4.0 requires DE / HART modem firmware version 2.0 or above. To check the firmware version and to upgrade it to the version required, refer to section 3.5 Start up, Shutting down the MC Toolkit and 3.6 Application icons.” and section 3.7“DE / HART Modem Firmware Upgrade”.
2. Before you begin 2.1 Calibration requirements Input calibration Input calibration of pressure transmitters should be done only when necessary, and should be done only under conditions that will ensure accuracy: • The transmitter should be taken out of service, and should be moved to an area with favorable environmental conditions: clean, dry, and temperature-controlled. • The source for the input pressure must be very precise, and certified for correct operation.
2. Before you begin 2.2. Transmitter/Communication characteristics Figure 2-1 Honeywell ST 3000/ ST 800 Smart Transmitter - Analog mode The characterization constants, which are written at the factory, are derived from highly precise testing of the sensor's response over a range of temperatures, and from the Lower Range Limit (LRL) to the Upper Range Limit (URL) of the sensor.
2. Before you begin 2.2. Transmitter/Communication characteristics Digital to-Analog Conversion and Transfer The digital-to-analog converter (D/A) shown at key number (5) in Figure 2-1is shown as a box with a dotted line to indicate that analog output mode is a user-selectable feature, for use in an application whose receiving equipment requires an analog input.
2. Before you begin 2.2. Transmitter/Communication characteristics Honeywell transmitter analog value scaling URV Figure 2-2 Honeywell Analog Value Scaling Digital (Communications Signal) Input/Output As indicated at the right of Figure 2-2, communications between the MC Toolkit and the Honeywell Smart Transmitter consist of digital pulse strings, with rapid transitions of current level between (approximately) 4 mA and 20 mA.
2. Before you begin 2.2. Transmitter/Communication characteristics Honeywell transmitter output-Digital enhanced mode Most of the operation of the Honeywell Smart Pressure Transmitter Digital Enhanced (DE) mode is similar to that of operation in the analog mode.
2. Before you begin 2.2. Transmitter/Communication characteristics In multi-drop mode, up to 16 transmitters in HART 5 (addresses 0-15) and up to 64 transmitters in HART6/7 (addresses 0-63) can exist on the two-conductor network, which precludes analog transmission methods. In this case, the same FSK modulation method is used for conveying levels of PV (and other variables) and also for communications.
