2 Basic safety instructions

2.1 Requirements for personnel


Physical and electronic access to field devices, networks, computers and systems must be
restricted to an authorized group of individuals. Use a role-based access system. Establish
detailed guidelines and processes to only allow authorized persons access to the PC or
other equipment.

2.2 Designated use


FieldCare is an FDT-based (Field Device Tool) Plant Asset Management tool which,
depending on the version, can be used for device parametrization, instrument
management or condition monitoring. By use of the appropriate Device Type Managers
(DTMs), it is able to operate field devices and system components independent of
communication protocol.
Use a properly configured firewall that blocks all data that do not meet the security
specifications. Deactivate ports that are not in use and use a demilitarized zone or an
intrusion detection system to improve security. Introduce an organized, real-time patch
management process for all products, such as operating systems, Internet browsers,
programs, apps, databases and drivers and run an anti-virus software on the PC. Only use
hardware, software, firmware and other electronic content from trusted sources.
Use a secure password for electronic access to the programs, e.g. for the PC, FieldCare, SQL
server and field devices.
A secure password should:
Be at least 8 characters long
Never contain the user name, personal names or company name
Never contain a whole word
Differ significantly from earlier passwords
Comprise upper-case letters, lower-case letters, a number and a symbol
Be changed regularly

2.3 Operational safety


DEP - Data Execution Prevention
DEP is a security tool that helps keep viruses, damage and security threats away from your
computer. By monitoring programs, DEP can help protect the computer and ensure that
applications use system memory safely. As soon as an application attempts to access a

2.4 Installation, commissioning and operation


This tutorial assumes that FieldCare has been correctly installed according to the
instructions in the Getting Started manual, (BA00027S/04/A2), and that the
appropriate DTM catalog has been installed and updated. The manual describes a number
of use cases with various system architectures. It is assumed that all devices and system
components have been installed and connected according to the instructions in the
associated Operating Instructions.
Where equipment is to be configured in explosion hazardous areas, it must be ensured all
components, including computer, have the appropriate certification.

2.5 Technical improvements


Endress+Hauser reserves the right to make technical improvements to the hardware and
software at any time and without prior notification. If such improvements have no effect
on the operation of the equipment, they are not documented. If the improvements affect
operation, a new version of the Operating Instructions is created and issued.

2.6 IT security
We only provide a warranty if the device is installed and used as described in the
Operating Instructions. The device is equipped with security mechanisms to protect it
against any inadvertent changes to the device settings.
IT security measures in line with operators' security standards and designed to provide
additional protection for the device and device data transfer must be implemented by the
operators themselves.

Introduction to FieldCare Tutorial for FieldCare projects

Under the Scanning tab it is possible to show or hide the Scan Result after the network
has been created. For the procedures described in these Operating Instructions, the option
has been selected which hides the Scan Result if only one device is found.

In general, if only one device is found, FieldCare will automatically make the connection
with the DTM and put it on-line. Where more than one device is found, each DTM must be
connected separately. Depending upon the DTM, a double-click on an unconnected device
will also prompt the connection. If this is not the case, the Connect option must be used.
The configuration of individual devices is not described in these Operating Instructions.
This information can be found in the Operating Instructions for the device in question.

Tutorial for FieldCare projects HART point-to-point connection via Commubox FXA191

5 HART point-to-point connection via


Commubox FXA191

5.1 Use cases


The Commubox FXA191 provides a direct connection between a HART device (4 to
20 mA) and the RS232C port (COM port) of a computer. To establish communication with
the HART device, a resistor of at least 250 must be provided in the circuit. The way in
which this is done depends upon the system architecture and power source used.
To see the HART device, FieldCare requires:
HART CommDTM
HART DeviceDTMs
Observe the maximum total load of the smart transmitter!
Once Commubox FXA191 has been used in a non-Ex installation, it should never be
used in an Ex installation, as there is a danger that the protective circuits have been
inadvertently overloaded and no longer function correctly.

NOTICE
Overloaded protective circuits can cause a malfunction!
Never use a Commubox FXA191 in an Ex installation if it has already been used in a
non-Ex installation

5.2 Connection procedure


Normally, the Commubox FXA191 connects to the COM1 port when it is plugged
into the computer.
It is recommended that only a native serial port be used. The use of USB/Serial
converters is not recommended.
Deactivate the FIFO buffer in the serial port settings.
When working with a modem that is connected to the COM1 port of the computer, you
can also select the HART (Point-to-Point) item in the FieldCare dialog. This
automatically sets up the project and the program scans for a device with the HART
address 0 (standard for non-Multidrop mode).

Commubox FXA195

6.1 Use cases


The Commubox FXA195 provides a direct connection between a HART device (4 to
20 mA) and the USB port of a computer. To establish communication with the HART
device, a resistor of at least 250 must be provided in the circuit. The way in which this is
done depends upon the system architecture and power source used.
To see the HART device, FieldCare requires:
HART CommDTM
HART DeviceDTMs
Please observe the max. total load of the Smart transmitter!
The communication resistor (250 ) integrated in the Commubox should not be
connected in parallel to a power supply point greater than 15 V. If the
communication resistor is used, it must always be incorporated into the 4 to 20 mA
circuit.

NOTICE
Overloaded protective circuits can cause a malfunction!
Never use a Commubox FXA195 in an Ex installation if it has already been used in a

HART via Fieldgate FXA520 and Pepperl+Fuchs multiplexer Tutorial for FieldCare projects

7 HART via Fieldgate FXA520 and


Pepperl+Fuchs multiplexer

7.1 Use cases


To see the HART devices in the use cases detailed below, FieldCare requires:
Fieldgate FXA520 CommDTM
HART multiplexer master KFD2-HMM-16 (FDT) CommDTM
HART DeviceDTMs
Fieldgate FXA520 must be commissioned and assigned a network IP address before
a connection can be established. See the Operating Instructions BA00051S/04/en
for this purpose.
Furthermore, the computer must be assigned to a network address in same domain
as Fieldgate FXA520 before it can connect with its CommDTM, see Appendix A.
181

7.1.1 Parallel access to HART control loop with 4 to 20 mA


In this use case, the HART devices are connected to an analog I/O card (4 to 20 mA) of a
programmable logic controller. Normally, the devices will be powered by the card, but in
the case of 4-wire devices an external power supply will be required. Two-wire devices can
also be used in active mode, in which case external power sources will also be required.
The HART signal is accessed via a multiplexer and Fieldgate FXA520.

PROFIBUS DP/PA via Fieldgate FXA720 Tutorial for FieldCare projects

22 PROFIBUS DP/PA via Fieldgate FXA720

22.1 Application
This use case is typical for the use of Fieldgate FXA720 to provide parallel access to a
PROFIBUS control system, e.g. for device set-up, device diagnosis or condition monitoring.
Fieldgate FXA720 operates as a Master Class 2 and uses non-cyclic communication.
A similar architecture, but not necessarily with a controller, could be used for the
monitoring of tank inventory in connection with SupplyCare software. In this case
FieldCare is used for set-up and diagnosis only.
To see the PROFIBUS DP/PA devices, FieldCare requires:
PROFIdtm DPV1 CommDTM
PROFIBUS CommDTM
PROFIBUS DeviceDTMs
A transparent coupler is one that does not require a CommDTM to connect to the
PROFIBUS PA devices beneath it. Pepperl+Fuchs DP/PA couplers are examples. If a
Siemens coupler or link is used, a CommDTM is required for it. The procedure for
connecting is analogous to that described in this chapter, the link being found during the
creation of the network after the Fieldgate FXA720 CommDTM has been added to the
FieldCare host.

Tutorial for FieldCare projects FOUNDATION Fieldbus H1 via Field Controller SFC162

34 FOUNDATION Fieldbus H1 via Field Controller


SFC162

34.1 Application
When operating as a visitor, the Field Controller SFC162 provides a parallel path to
devices in an existing system and is used to commission devices, to change their settings or
to monitor their condition. This assumes that the system is operating, i.e. a project has
been downloaded to the Field Controller and devices.
The Field Controller SFC162 is normally used to configure the transducer blocks only.
For some devices, the Field Controller SFC162 can also be used to configure the input
and output blocks, but normally not the logic and control blocks.
A full description of the use of the Field Controller SFC162 in bypass mode can be found
in BA00069S/04/en.

Field Controller SFC162

35.1 Application
In Bench mode operation, two scenarios exist:
The devices are configured prior to being installed in the plant
The devices are already installed in the plant but the Field Controller SFC162 is not in
operation
In the first case, the devices will normally be configured on a point-to-point basis, i.e. one
device at a time, unless a powered network structure exists. In the second case, the
network exists, but it must be powered before the devices can be configured.
As far as the Field Controller SFC162 is concerned, Bench mode operation requires that it
operates as a controller, since there will normally be no other LAS (link active scheduler)
in the network. Fig. 51 shows the Bench mode architecture.

This chapter describes the point-to-point scenario. It shows how a device tag and device
address can be assigned to a device. For information about the configuration of the
devices, please refer to the appropriate manual.
The DeviceDTMs differ from device to device in the functions which can be configured:
All DTMs allow the configuration of the resource and transducer blocks.
Some DTMs allow the configuration of the device input/output blocks.
To date, no DTM allows the configuration of the tag and address. This can only be done
with the Field Controller SFC162 CommDTM.
The upload to the control system may also differ depending upon the manufacturer, type
and condition of the device. Endress+Hauser devices delivered fresh from the factory will
usually upload all the function blocks they support including logic and control blocks,
although the latter cannot be configured via DTMs.
Should a device have been subject to a download from a control system, then any block not
instantiated by the engineering tool will not be part of the upload. For a TMT162
temperature transmitter, for example, if only one analog input block has been instantiated

Endress+Hauser 137
FOUNDATION Fieldbus H1 Bench mode via Field Controller SFC162 Tutorial for FieldCare projects

for a project, only this block will be uploaded, although three blocks are offered in the
DTM. Configuring the two other blocks in FieldCare will not cause them to be uploaded.

35.2 Commissioning the Field Controller SFC162

35.2.1 Setting up the IP address of the Field Controller SFC162


For this procedure, it is necessary to know the IP address of the Fieldgate within the
