Installation Guide AMS Suite: Intelligent Device Manager

NOVEMBER 2013

• System software options–OWP with P1.2 or higher, PROVUE P5.5 or higher,

and ENVOX 3.4 or higher; I/O must be configured as “digital” or “hybrid”

• Dedicated HDL with Ethernet connection (TCP/IP) to AMS Device Manager PC

FF HSE

The FF HSE interface requires:

• One or more (up to 64) commissioned FF HSE Linking Devices that conform to

the F

OUNDATION fieldbus HSE and H1 specifications (for a list of supported

linking devices, see the Release Notes). The Remote Operations Controller for

OUNDATION fieldbus (ROC FF) and the ControlWave linking devices are

displayed in AMS Device Manager in the FF HSE hierarchy. For setup and

configuration of ROC FF and ControlWave linking devices, refer to the

documentation supplied with them.

• Commissioning using the device manufacturer’s commissioning/

decommissioning utility.

• FF HSE Linking Device configuration with unique TCP/IP addresses.

• An AMS Device Manager station with 1 or 2 Ethernet network interface cards

(NIC). A NIC dedicated to the FF HSE segment is recommended to reduce the

amount of competing network communications.

Note

All linking devices on the same network must have unique tag names. If duplicate tag

names are used, the hierarchy will not build properly.

NOTICE

If you have an Ovation network installed, use a different TCP/IP address for the FF HSE

network.
