6.3.2 FieldCare
Function scope
FDT/DTM-based plant asset management tool from Endress+Hauser. It can configure all
smart field units in a system and help you manage them. By using the status information,
it is also a simple but effective way of checking their status and condition. Access is via the
HART
®
protocol, CDI (= Endress+Hauser Common Data Interface). It also supports devices
with the following protocols, provided a suitable device driver (DTM) is installed:
PROFIBUS, FOUNDATION Fieldbus.
Typical functions:
• Configuring parameters of transmitters
• Loading and saving device data (upload/download)
• Documentation of the measuring point
• Visualization of the measured value memory (line recorder) and event logbook
For details, see Operating Instructions BA027S/04/xx and BA059AS/04/xx
