Overview

This manual describes the setup and operation of the optional HART interface for the Thermo Scientific DensityPRO or DensityPRO+ gamma density systems. This interface includes:

Introduction troduction

● HART interface, which consists of a Motorola 68HC12 P and interface circuitry to both the instrument and the HART bus. This board is a piggyback that mounts on the DC power I/O relay PWA 886675.

● DensityPRO+ HART Device Description (DD), which offers access to the instrument’s measurement data and basic setup functions. This DD is typically loaded into the 275 / 375 (or later) Field Communicator from Emerson Electric Co.

Note It is assumed that readers have a basic familiarity with the gauge. If necessary, refer to the Density PRO user guide (p/n 717784) or DensityPRO+ user guide (p/n 717819). ▲

Terms Terms The following terms are used in this document:

● HART: An acronym for Highway Addressable Remote Transducer. The protocol is maintained by the HART Communication Foundation.

● Device Description (DD): A program script that contains the menus/methods for interacting with a HART instrument. The Fisher Rosemount 275/375/later has a built-in interpreter to run DD scripts. The DensityPRO+ DD is referred to as DensityPRO DD.

● HART board: The HART interface for DensityPRO / DensityPRO +.

● 275/375/later: The 275/375/later Field Communicator from Emerson Electric Co.

Overview Theory of Operation

Theory of Operation

HART Board The HART board serves as an intelligent pass-through between the “external” HART world and the gauge. It has three responsibilities:

● Maintain a local copy of all gauge setup data for fast retrieval.

● Offer real-time access to the gauge’s process and alarm data.

● Translate incoming HART requests to the equivalent native gauge requests, collect the data, and send the response to the HART requestor.

On the gauge side, the HART board co-opts the gauge’s RS232 port and talks to it in logic levels in the usual ASYNC format. On the HART side, the HART telemetry is “mixed” with the gauge’s 4–20 mA current out. The HART master (usually the 275/375/later field communicator) talks to the gauge over its current loop.

DensityPRO DD The DensityPRO DD is designed to offer access to the gauge’s process data and basic setup functions, including:

● Primary measurement setup

● Process alarms

● Additional measurements

● Current output settings

● Gauge fine tuning

● Action items (gauge restart, erase memory)

As practical, the DD menu structure mirrors that found in the gauge. The DD menu flowcharts appear in Appendix A.

Gauge Once the HART board is installed, the gauge enters a special mode of operation by:

● Overriding all user RS232 selections and setting the port to 96007E1, Blind Mode, data streaming inhibited.

● Disabling all RS232 setup menus in the gauge user system.

● Enabling HART board software watchdog, which monitors HART board data requests. The watchdog will raise a system fault alarm if there were no requests received in a one-minute interval.

Chapter 2

Instrument Setup with HART

To facilitate ease of use, the DensityPRO DD was specifically modeled from the gauge’s built-in menu system. Refer to Appendix A for details.

Chapter 3

HART Multi-Drop Mode

The DensityPRO / DensityPRO+ HART supports the HART multi-drop mode where up to 15 slaves can be interconnected on a single current loop. While in this mode, the gauge parks its current out at 3.8 mA. Each slave must be assigned an individual unique ID and polling address to be accessed by a HART Master.

HART Unique ID The unique ID is a 24-bit number that the HART protocol uses to distinguish between slaves in the long-addressing format. The gauge stores this ID in non-volatile (NV) RAM. It is shipped with an ID of 0. At power-up, the HART board reads this ID from the gauge.

The ID may be set via the gauge’s built-in user interface, with the Thermo Scientific 9734 RS485 Handheld. To set a unique ID using direct entry:

1. Enable the protected NV section (0130101).

2. Assign a non-zero HART unique ID (019015 SN, where SN is a 24-bit hexadecimal number from 1 to 0xFFFFFF).

HART Polling Address

The polling address is an 8-bit number (0–15), which is used to distinguish between slaves in the short-addressing format. The polling address resides in the HART board’s NVRAM. The FR275/375/later is typically used to assign the polling address (refer to the FR275/375/later user guide). Once the polling address is assigned, the gauge parks its current out at 3.8 mA.

Exiting Multi-Drop

Exit multi-drop mode by restoring the gauge’s polling address to zero. Afterward, the current out operation will return to normal.


HART Multi-Drop Mode Limitations in Multi-Drop Mode

3-2 DensityPRO / DensityPRO+ HART Operation Guide Thermo Fisher Scientific

Limitations in Multi-Drop Mode

While in multi-drop mode, the gauge current output will not:

● Track the measurement (PV)

● Perform user current hold commands

● Perform current out alarm actions (go to Fault Low/Fault High)
