Flexible Configuration Options
The Power to Get Things Done
There are two power options for the CSI 9420. For a truly
wireless experience, utilize the SmartPower
™
Module. Based on
the low power output dened by the WirelessHART standard,
the CSI 9420 can achieve an operating life of up to 4 years when
using the Power Save option. An operating life of two to three
years can be achieved when using the default settings (update
rate set to 60 minutes).
For faster update rates, the external DC-powered terminal
block is recommended. This option provides virtually
unlimited operation, even at the minimum update rate
of once per minute.
Local Indication and Verification
The optional LCD display provides a local read-out of
sensor values and transmitter diagnostics to streamline
commissioning and troubleshooting at the device. Local
indication of vibration measurements and diagnostics
also provides accurate, real-time verication of operating
conditions. The LCD display can be rotated to facilitate easy
viewing, regardless of the orientation of the transmitter.
Plan and Manage Wireless Networks
The AMS Wireless SNAP-ON
™
application is a revolutionary
tool that enables you to both plan and manage your wireless
network. Starting with a scale drawing of the plant, utilize
simple click-and-drag functionality to position the
gateways and wireless devices. Then the AMS Wireless
SNAP-ON application will compare the plan to industry
best practices. Recommendations will help you quickly
develop a reliable wireless network.
After the devices are installed, the AMS Wireless SNAP-ON
application will help you manage the network, providing
a graphical overview of the communication paths and
network health.
Wireless Architecture Overview
Ultimate Simplicity
Built on the IEC 62591 (WirelessHART) industrial standard,
Emerson’s wireless network is completely self-organizing.
There is no need to congure communication paths because
the Smart Wireless Gateway manages this automatically –
including adapting to changing environments. Once the
network is established, new devices can be added at any
time. Conversely, even if a device is de-commissioned,
data reporting from other devices continues uninterrupted
over other established paths.
Easy Installation
The CSI 9420, like all Emerson’s Smart Wireless transmitters,
is simple to install. As soon as power is applied to the device,
it will automatically establish communication with neighboring
wireless devices, establish a path to the Gateway, and begin
reporting. Each transmitter also has the ability to function as
a repeater, relaying data from other devices to extend the
network across virtually any size facility or industrial campus.
Network Stability
The Smart Wireless Gateway connects the wireless network
with the host system and data applications like AMS Suite.
The Gateway manages all aspects of the network: executing
scheduled readings and accommodating requests for on-
demand acquisitions. The Gateway congures the network
to minimize power consumption and ensure network stability,
while maintaining data reliability well above 99%.
The AMS Wireless SNAP-ON application graphically displays your
wireless network.
