Preface
Control System
The control system includes these components:
HART Handheld Device (Optional)
The Field Xpert handheld device is an industrial PDA with integrated 3.5" touch
screen based on Windows Mobile. The PDA meets the needs and requirements
of the process industry with protection from static electricity, water and dust with
shockproof housing. It is available in different versions for operation both inside
and outside of explosion hazardous areas.
Component Description
Controller The ControlLogix controller is a modular, high performance controller, that uses RSLogix 5000 programming software
to configure, program, and monitor a system. The ControlLogix controller is certified by TUV for SIL 1 and SIL 2
applications.
HART I/O module The HART analog I/O module converts to or from 4...20 mA analog signals and the digital values used in the controller.
The I/O module automatically collects dynamic process data from the HART field instrument. The I/O module also
bridges HART messages from CIP clients to HART field instruments.
Programming software RSLogix 5000 programming software is the design and configuration tool for HART I/O that includes status and
diagnostic information. The software has predefined data structures for status and configuration. A common tag
database in the controller allows HMI development to directly reference I/O and controller tags without the need to
manage another database in your HMI software.
Operating software FactoryTalk View Site Edition software is an HMI software program for monitoring, controlling, and acquiring data from
manufacturing operations throughout an enterprise. A generic display provides a graphical representation via
faceplates of the field instrument connected to the HART input module.
Asset management software FactoryTalk AssetCentre software and FieldCare software are options asset management options for configuring and
managing the intelligent field devices in your plant.
• Support Ethernet, HART, and Profibus networks.
• Support Endress+Hauser field instruments.
• Integrate third-party devices, such as actuators, I/O systems, and sensors that support the FDT standard.
• Ensure full functionality for all devices with DTMs.
• Offer generic profile operation for any third-party fieldbus device that does not have a vendor DTM.
