1. Introduction to FDM R430

1.1 Overview FDM application is an asset management system that supports client/server architecture. The application provides an environment that enables you to configure commission and maintain smart field devices. It supports configuration of device parameters and methods execution for Highway Addressable Remote Transducer (HART), Foundation Fieldbus (FF), and PROFIBUS devices. For HART, it supports protocol version 5.x, 6.x and 7.x. It also supports device configuration using Electronic Device Description Language (EDDL) based configuration screens and FDT-DTM. PROFIBUS device and FF device support is provided only using FDT-DTM (Field Device Tool-Device Type Manager). It also helps in diagnosing field devices.

FDM supports FF Device DTMs to read, display and write all the commissioned devices connected to Fieldbus Interface Module in Experion. It also supports Fisher ValveLink DTM to perform maintenance operations and to view diagnostic data for FF Fisher Valves.

With FDM R430, FDM is enhanced for the following:

Support for HART 7 protocol

FDM integration with Safety Manager through Universal Safe Modules to maintain HART devices connected to safety systems

FDT Comm Console to manage networks and devices integrated in FDM through FDT Communication and Gateway DTMs

1.2 Supported technologies FDM supports the following technologies to configure, commission, and maintain field devices.

Device description files (DDs and EDDs) HART devices are capable of providing functions and features, far beyond the basic task of providing a process input or accepting a control output to manipulate process conditions. HART device vendors create a Device Description (DD) or (EDD) for every device that describes the functions and features specific to that device. The DD and EDD also contain information essential for the successful configuration and calibration of the device.

FDM uses original unmodified device vendor DDs and EDDs, to provide full configuration and setup for all HCF registered HART devices. Ensure that you use the latest DD and EDD for a particular device type and revision. DDs or EDDs are available from the device vendors.

Unlike other configuration tools, FDM does not require custom DD and EDD to be developed for the tool itself. It supports all the unmodified DDs and EDDs of the devices, as registered with the HART Communication Foundation (HCF).

ATTENTION

FDM supports all devices that have their DDs registered with the HCF.

Electronic Device Description Language (EDDL) EDDL (Electronic Device Description Language) is a clear, structured text description that specifically describes field device data to host systems. It is an enhancement over DD language. It constructs the defined presentation of device information by the host applications and document hosts to store the data on behalf of the device. Using EDDL constructs, DD writers can define the user interface rules that the host application need to adhere to while displaying the user interface for that device. It also has constructs like charts, graphs and so on that provides enhanced user experience. FDM supports HART device configuration through EDDL based DDs.

1 Introduction to FDM R430 1.2 Supported technologies


Methods Execution Methods are predefined sequence of steps that can be executed by a Host. The device vendors develop these methods and supply them as a part of the device DD file/EDD file or device DTM of the devices. Some examples of methods are:

Commanding the device to complete a calibration operation.

Commanding an advanced diagnostic test procedure.

Executing tests to gather information on device operation.

FDM supports:

Method execution through DD/EDD file or device DTM for HART protocol.

Method execution through device DTM for FF protocol.

Method execution through device DTM for PROFIBUS protocol.

FDT-DTM FDM supports the Field Device Tool (FDT)-Device Type Manager (DTM) technology to configure HART, FF, and PROFIBUS devices.

Field Device Tool: A standard interface defined by the FDT group for integration with field devices. It is used by the host applications like FDM to integrate with the devices and provide the configuration and maintenance capabilities. Any host application, which implements the FDT-DTM technology is referred to as FDT Frame.

It has the following three primary functions.

Interfacing with the Device DTM for device configuration.

Interfacing with the Gateway and Communication DTMs to communicate with devices.

Managing the DTM Catalog.

Device Type Manager: This is analogous to a device driver that is developed by device vendors for a particular device type. DTM enables usage of devices in all the asset management and device configuration software like FDM, with the help of the FDT-DTM technology.

The DTM has the following primary functions.

Provides a Graphic User Interface for device configuration.



Provides device configuration, calibration, and management features for the particular device.

The following are the three types of DTMs.

Device DTM: The Device DTM represents a field device and contains the details of the User Interface, Device Parameters, DTM documentation for configuration and calibration of devices and diagnostic functions for the device.

Communication DTM: The Communication DTM is software that represents a communication device. It has the following features.

It is provided by the communication device vendor.

It can be loaded in an FDT frame in a host application.

It is responsible for the communication between FDT host application and physical communication device.

It implements the standard interfaces, as specified by the FDT Group.

It allows browsing the complete network and configuring to work with a different type of network.

It has its own UI, which allows configuring the communication device for proper communication with network.

It has its own installations, which take care of registering the DTMs.

Gateway DTM: The Gateway DTM is the software that represents a gateway device. It has the following features.

It uses the communication DTMs or other communication drivers for communicating with the devices. Any requests from the devices connected to the Gateway are sent to the Gateway DTM, which is then sent to the Communication DTMs.

It has its own UI, which allows configuring the Gateway device for proper communication with network.

It has its own installations, which take care of registering the DTMs.

For example, HART-on-PROFIBUS Gateway DTM represents the HART-on-PROFIBUS Gateway device that is used for connecting the HART devices on the PROFIBUS networks.

1 Introduction to FDM R430 1.2 Supported technologies


ATTENTION

PROFIBUS devices can be configured in FDM only through DTMs. FDM does not support configuration of PROFIBUS devices through DD/EDD.

HART protocol In a typical process control environment, field devices such as pressure, level, and temperature transmitters and valve positioners provide the physical connection to the process. These devices allow the control system to monitor and manipulate process conditions. Smart field devices, such as HART devices, maintain a database of process configuration, identification, and diagnostic information in memory. These devices use the HART digital protocol (governed and maintained by the HART Communication Foundation) to communicate with the control and asset management system. The HART Communication Foundation (HCF) has a membership of over 150 vendors (including Honeywell), offering over 500 different HART devices. HART is an open smart field device protocol available for use by all member companies.

For more details about HART and HCF, visit the web site at: http://www.hartcomm.org/.

FDM supports HART devices conforming to HART 5.x, 6.x and 7.x (wired) versions of the HART protocol.

Foundation Fieldbus protocol Foundation Fieldbus is an enabling technology for dynamically integrating dedicated field devices with digitally based control systems. It defines how all smart field devices are to communicate with other devices in the control network. The technology is based upon the International Standards Organization's Open System Interconnection (OSI) model for layered communications.Foundation Fieldbus is a sophisticated, object-oriented protocol that uses multiple messaging formats and allows a controller to recognize a rich set of configuration and parameter information (device description) from devices that have been plugged into the bus. Foundation Fieldbus even allows a device to transmit parameters relating to the estimated reliability of a particular piece of data. Foundation Fieldbus uses a scheduler to guarantee the delivery of messages, so issues of determinism and repeatability are solidly addressed (determinism means knowing absolute worst-case response times with 100% certainty). Each segment of the network contains one scheduler.

For more details about FF, visit the web site at: www.fieldbus.org.



PROFIBUS protocol PROFIBUS is a powerful and versatile two-wire digital fieldbus system. It is mainly used in the field level with interfacing capabilities downward towards the sensor/actuator level and upwards towards the production and enterprise levels. PROFIBUS devices connected in the PROFIBUS network gives diagnostic information about the health of the devices and the measured values, along with the values themselves. This information is helpful for better maintenance and thus reducing downtime. PROFIBUS is used in Process automation, Factory automation, Motion control and so on.

FDM supports configuration and collection of diagnostics of PROFIBUS PA and PROFIBUS DP devices using the FDT-DTM technology. FDM hosts device, communication, and gateway DTMs provided by the PROFIBUS device vendors. You can configure and perform maintenance activities on PROFIBUS devices in the field using these DTMs.

PROFIBUS International has over 1200 members worldwide which includes many field device vendors.

For more details about PROFIBUS and PROFIBUS International, visit the web site at: www.profibus.com

Multi Master Configuration PROFIBUS Masters are classified on a high level into the following two types.

Master which supports cyclic data communication (DPV0) is normally referred to as Class1 Masters. The Class-1 master (DPM1) is the central control unit of a system, for example, a PLC that exchanges data with the field devices within a specified message cycle. All measured values and set point values required to control the system as well as the device status data are transmitted. When compared with conventional techniques, the cyclic communication of the Class-1 master assumes tasks of the analog 4 to 20 mA standardized signals and additionally enables the bidirectional exchange of data.

Master which supports acyclic data communication (DPV1) is normally referred to as Class-II Masters. Class-II masters (DPM2) are used for operation and monitoring purposes and during start-up. The associated exchange of data takes place, if required. Therefore, class-II masters require acyclic communication services exclusively.

1 Introduction to FDM R430 1.3 FDM functions and features


In the Control System, essential parameters are available through the cyclic data (DPV0). If you want additional data regarding the devices, use acyclic data communication. In this case, you can send commands to the devices and request for additional data from Asset Management Tool through Class 2 masters, which support DPV1 Communication.

The following are the typical examples.

Softing FG100

T&H xEPI

1.3 FDM functions and features FDM Server and FDM Client allow communication across the network throughout the plant area. It is possible to remotely accomplish device-monitoring, configuration, and setup from the operator center, maintenance shop, or relay room.
