Appendix: HART Specific Information

The S5000 Gas Monitor is available with an optional HART (Highway Addressable Remote Transducer) output communications protocol. With this option, the S5000 complies with HART Protocol Revision 7 and uses the 16-bit manufacturer and device codes. This document specifies all the device specific features and documents HART Protocol implementation details (e.g., the Engineering Unit Codes supported). These specifications assume the reader is somewhat familiar with HART Protocol requirements and terminology.

This specification is a technical reference for HART-capable HOST Application Developers, System Integrators and knowledgeable End Users. It also provides functional specifications (e.g., commands, enumerations and performance requirements) used during Field Device deployment, maintenance, testing, and operations. It is recommended that the 4-20 mA output be the primary gas monitoring signal. The HART signal can be the secondary method.
