HART Over PROFIBUS
The HART Over PROFIBUS System Interface lets you use AMS Device Manager to view
and configure HART Rev. 5 or HART Rev. 6 field devices that are connected to
PROFIBUS remote I/O subsystems via the T+H Ethernet PROFIBUS Interface (xEPI)
PROFIBUS Gateway. The interface addresses the gateway by either its DNS or IP
address.
The HART Over PROFIBUS System Interface supports the AMS ValveLink SNAP-ON
application if using a compatible PROFIBUS remote I/O subsystem.
Preparing the PROFIBUS remote system
Refer to the documentation specific to your PROFIBUS remote I/O subsystem for
device connection and network setup instructions.
Configuring AMS Device Manager for a HART Over
PROFIBUS Interface
To configure AMS Device Manager for a HART Over PROFIBUS Interface:
1. Close AMS Device Manager if it is running.
2. Download and install the TACC components from T+H (http://www.t-h.de/en/
support-and-service/industrial-communication/products/tacc/downloads/
software-documentation.html).
3. Select Start > All Programs > AMS Device Manager > Network Configuration
from the Windows taskbar.
4. Click Add.
5. From the Select Network Component Type dialog, select HART Over PROFIBUS
and click Install.
6. Follow the HART Over PROFIBUS Network Wizard instructions.
Note
If AMS Device Manager is unable to detect the eBIMs, change the order of the network
adapters in the station Network Properties so the Network Interface Card (NIC) connected
to the 8000 BIM system is listed first. Then restart the PC.
