HART is a widely used communication standard for field Siemens field devices for process automation which are listed in

HCF (HART Communication Foundation).
The HART standard expands the analog 4 to 20 mA signal for Measuring instruments for pressure

■ Application
SITRANS MDS increases the transparency of a plant by centrally
collecting diagnostic information, directly from the accessible
field devices. In principle, all devices that are integrated in
SIMATIC PDM can be included in the collecting process.
SITRANS MDS can be used where the installed automation sys-
tem does not support an integrated acyclic communication of
parameters and diagnostic information with the devices. In the
case of HART devices, this applies to 85% of all installed
devices.
The modern SIMATIC PCS 7 process control system allows for
this type of continuous communication from the engineering sys-
tem up to the devices. It also features a decidedly higher perfor-
mance asset management system. The use of SIMATIC MDS
therefore does not make sense in a SIMATIC PCS 7 environment
and is hence not approved for that purpose.

environment. TAG options/PowerPacks for SIMATIC PDM V6.1
A TAG corresponds to a SIMATIC PDM object, which represents
individual field devices or components within a project, e.g.
measuring instruments, positioners, switching devices or remote
I/Os. TAGs are also relevant for diagnostics with the lifelist of
8
SIMATIC PDM. In this case, TAGs are considered to be all recog-
nized devices with diagnostics capability, whose detailed
diagnostics is effected through the device description (EDD).
In contrast to PowerPacks, TAG options are only suitable for
individual SIMATIC PDM product configurations on the basis of
SIMATIC PDM Basic V6.1. Using the SIMATIC PDM TAG options
for SIMATIC PDM V6.1, SIMATIC PDM Basic V6.1 can be
expanded from 4 TAGs to 128, 512, 1 024 or 2 048 TAGs, and
with the help of an additive PowerPack for SIMATIC PDM V6.1
even to unlimited TAGs.
With the PowerPacks for SIMATIC PDM V6.1, product packages
based on SIMATIC PDM V6.1 can be provided with additional
TAGs. PowerPacks are available for TAG expansion to 512,
1 024, 2 048 and unlimited TAGs.
Demonstration software
SIMATIC PDM V6.1 and SIMATIC PDM V8.0 are also available
with demo software for demonstration purposes. Online commu-
nication and storage functions are not available with the demo
software.
■ Function ■ Integration
Device integration
SIMATIC PDM supports all devices described by EDD
(Electronic Device Description). EDD is standardized to
EN 50391 and IEC 61804. Internationally it is the most widely
used standardized technology for device integration. At the
same time, it is the guideline of the established organizations for
• PROFIBUS (PNO: PROFIBUS user organization)
• HART (HCF: HART Communication Foundation)
• FF (Fieldbus Foundation)
The devices are integrated in SIMATIC PDM through a
company-specific EDD, through the current HCF catalog, or
through the current Fieldbus Foundation catalog. To achieve
improved transparency, they can be managed in project-
specific device catalogs.
PROFIBUS devices are described in the EDD in terms of
functions and construction using the Electronic Device
Description Language (EDDL). Using this description,
SIMATIC PDM automatically creates its user interface with the
specific device data. The range of devices of the catalog
integrated in SIMATIC PDM can be updated and expanded
simply by importing the manufacturer's device-specific EDD.
Fieldbus Foundation provides pre-defined device descriptions
(standard DD) for the basic functions of specific field device
types. The basic functions are implemented using various
standard function and transmission blocks.
