9.3 Connection variants

The signal converter is a 2-wire device with 4...20 mA current output and HART

interface.

• Multi-Drop Mode is supported

Multi-Drop Mode is supported

Multi-Drop Mode is supported
In a Multi-Drop communication system, more than 1 device is connected to a common
transmission cable.

• Burst Mode is not supported

Burst Mode is not supported

There are two ways of using the HART

communication:

• as Point-to-Point connection and
• as Multi-Drop connection with 2-wire connection.

9.3.1 Point-to-Point connection - analogue / digital mode

Point-to-Point connection between the signal converter and the HART

Master.

The current output of the device is passive.

Also refer to

Point-to-point networks

on page 59.

9.3.2 Multi-Drop connection (2-wire connection)

Up to 15 devices may be installed in parallel (this signal converter and other HART

devices).

For an illustration of multi-drop networks, refer to

Multi-drop networks

on page 60.

For data on communication in multi-drop mode, refer to

Network configuration
