Configuring AMS Device Manager for an Ovation

System Interface

At least 1 AMS Device Manager station must installed on the Ovation network,

though not necessarily on an Ovation station. To access HART and PROFIBUS DP

devices, you can configure the AMS Device Manager Ovation System Interface on a

standalone AMS Device Manager station (that is, without Ovation software). For all

device protocols, you can install AMS Device Manager Client SC software on an

Ovation Database Server and set up the Ovation System Interface using AMS Device

Manager Network Configuration utility. If AMS Device Manager is installed on an

Ovation Station that also has fieldbus engineering software installed, you can right-

click a HART or F

OUNDATION fieldbus device and select from a set of AMS Device

Manager commands. See

“Ovation” on page 34 for station and version compatibility

information. Your Ovation username must also be an AMS Device Manager user with

Device Write and Device SIS Write permissions.

When you configure the Ovation System Interface on an AMS Device Manager Client

SC station co-deployed on an Ovation Database Server, HART, WirelessHART,

PROFIBUS DP, and F

OUNDATION fieldbus devices are supported. You must use the

Ovation Database Server as your network gateway to access HART devices.

Communication with WirelessHART devices is enabled through a Smart Wireless

Gateway. For communicating with F

OUNDATION fieldbus devices, the fieldbus

engineering software must be installed locally on the same machine as AMS Device

Manager (see

“Preparing the Ovation system” on page 89).

To configure AMS Device Manager for an Ovation interface:

1. Select Start > All Programs > AMS Device Manager > Network Configuration

from the Windows taskbar.

2. In the Network Configuration dialog, click Add.

3. In the Select Network Component Type dialog, select Ovation Network and

click Install.

4. Click Next.

5. In the General dialog, enter a name for the Ovation Network. Click Next.

6. In the Connection dialog, enter the name of the computer on the Ovation

Network that contains the Ovation system Oracle database.
