HCS

HART Concentrator System


HART-to-MODBUS RTU Converter
May 2006

Description
The HCS HART Concentrator System converts a
HART digital signal to a serial (RS-485 or RS-232)
MODBUS RTU communication protocol. This allows
HART transmitters and valves to interface directly
with MODBUS-based monitoring and control systems.

Operates in Point-to-Point and


Digital Multidrop HART Networks
In point-to-point HART mode, the HCS is set to
monitor a single instrument. All process and diagnostic data carried on the HART data string is converted
to MODBUS RTU.
Up to 16 HART Devices Per HCSIn a digital
multidrop HART network, up to 16 HART instruments
digitally communicate on the same wires. The HCS
can be set to monitor any or all instruments and/or
valves within the network. Only one MODBUS
address, and one communication link (such as
twisted wire pair), is needed to send the process and
diagnostic data from up to 16 HART devices to a
MODBUS host.

Figure 1. The HCS economically converts HART to serial


MODBUS RTU (RS-485 or RS-232) protocol.

The HCS features a metal, RFI resistant housing that


snaps onto standard DIN-style rails.

Features
Works with every HART-compatible device.
The HCS handles smart multivariable mass flow,
pressure, pH and temperature transmitters; coriolis,
magnetic, ultrasonic and vortex flow meters; radar
and hydrostatic level transmitters; and valve
postioners and damper operators.
Monitor primary and non-primary variables.
All HART process information, including primary,
second, third and fourth process variable data is
converted to MODBUS RTU and available to the
MODBUS host system if up to eight devices are
connected. If nine or more devices are on the loop,
the primary and secondary variables can be
monitored through MODBUS.
Monitor HART instrument diagnostics. Using the
Field Device Status Byte data that is available in
HARTs digital information, the HCS can transmit,
via MODBUS RTU, diagnostic data including smart
device configuration changed; primary and nonprimary variables out of limits; primary variable
analog output fixed; cold start; field device
malfunction; and more HART status data available.
PC-programmable with Windows software.
From a single screen, you can choose, and then
view to confirm, all of your application specific
operating parameters from a PC.
