b. Device Description

The HART (Highway Addressable Remote Transducer) Communicator is a hand-held communications interface device. It provides a common communications link to all microproc- essor-based instruments which are HART com- patible. The hand-held communicator contains an 8 x 21 character liquid crystal display and 25 keys. A pocket-sized manual, included with the HART Communicator, details the specific func- tions of all keys.

To interface with the IFT 3000, the HART Com- municator requires a termination point along the 4-20 mA current loop, and a minimum load re- sistance of 250 ohms between the communica- tor and the power supply. The HART Communicator accomplishes its task by use of a frequency shift keying (FSK) technique. With the use of FSK, high-frequency digital communica-

tion signals are superimposed on the 4-20 mA transmitter current loop. The communicator does not disturb the 4-20 mA signal, since no net energy is added to the loop.

The HART Communicator may be interfaced with a personal computer, providing special software has been installed. To connect the HART Communicator to a PC, an interface adaptor is required. Refer to the proper HART Communicator documentation in regard to the PC interface option.
