FDI Communication server can be thought of a dedicated OPC UA server providing access to the underlying field device networks. HART-IP can carry data from both WirelessHART and HART field instrumentation to enable simplified system integration and to support the growing plant infrastructure of wireless sensors. It allows future-proofing your plants to aging HART enabled devices.
Utthunga’s uHART-IP FDI Communication server defines a standardized interface to allow integration of the HART-IP protocol with the FDI enabled host systems and clients. The FDI host supporting the GPE sends a request embedded in a generic message format to the HART-IP FDI Communication server, which communicates with the underlying HART device and sends the response back to the FDI host.
Our uHART-IP Communication Server is compatible with HART 7 devices. It is designed to handle delayed responses efficiently. This keeps the loop or the session active at all or required times. The server is also based on the certified OPC stack, which makes it very reliable. The product is compatible with FCG_TS62769 and OPC specification v1.04. We also offer scan support and guarantee that our servers provide safe and secure communication.
Our uHART-IP FDI communication server is compliant with the following FDI specifications:
The HART-IP Communication Server has been tested using Emerson Wireless HART Gateway and FieldComm Group’s (FCG) reference host. The server is compatible with Windows (7/8/10, Server 2012, Server 2016), Linux as well.
Our close association with the FCG group and our expertise in the FDI Technology make us your reliable partner for the HART-IP FDI communication server implementation in your industrial plants. With our deep understanding and first-hand field experience of the FDI standard, our experts have participated and contributed actively to the FCG consortium. We can implement the requirements for both the FDI Communication Server and the FDI Communication Package for our customers. Leverage advantages of both the FDI and OPC technology with our products that are also compatible with FDI CTT tools.
IO-Link – an integral part in the Industrial Automation As more devices are interconnected at the factory level, the automation process greatly depends on seamless communications between devices from the shop floor such as sensors and actuators to the control systems like PLCs, and others. To ensure this, IO-Link is one of the first standardized […]
The current wave of the industrial revolution, also known as the Industrie 4.0, has proven to improve the production process in various aspects. To realize the promised benefits, a strong communication protocol that allows semantic interoperability among interconnected devices is needed. In manufacturing industries where processes are greatly dependent on the industrial sensors and actuators, […]
Introduction Wired sensors connected to control systems via industrial communication protocols like HART or even a simple 4–20 mA loop take up the required energy supplied over the cabling. It is estimated that wiring takes up majority of the total sensor installation cost. On the other hand, wireless sensors used for industrial control and automation […]
What are Protocol Simulators? The term “simulator” means “imitator of a situation or a process”. In the digital sense, we can say that a protocol simulator or a network simulator is a computer-generated simulation of a protocol before bringing the product to the market. There is a paradigm shift in industries like industrial OEMs, discrete, […]
