Using OPC™ for Accessing Fisher™ FIELDVUE

™

Digital Valve Controller Data

Introduction

Object Linking and Embedding (OLE) for Process Control (OPC) is a technology designed to bridge Windows®-based
applications and process control hardware. It is an open standard communications protocol that permits a consistent
method of accessing data from digital field devices. This method remains the same regardless of the type and source
of data.

This document provides guidance for data gathering via OPC of parameters from FIELDVUE digital valve controllers.

Note

A third party OPC client is required to request and read the data from the OPC Server.

Emerson OPC Servers

An OPC Server is a licensable feature with both AMS Device Manager and the 1410 and 1420 WirelessHART™ Gateways.
The OPC Server allows an OPC client application to access HART (and with AMS Device Manager, F
device data in near real-time. Live device information through OPC is not supported from PROFIBUS devices.

Rosemount™ 14x0 WirelessHART Gateway / THUM WirelessHART
Adapter

With a WirelessHART Gateway, the information available via OPC from FIELDVUE digital valve controllers is obtained

®

through the two HART

messages configured in the THUM WirelessHART adapter used for routine polling of the field
device. The OPC Server can only serve up parameter data and cannot provide detailed device alert information, so the
best choices for the two THUM commands to the FIELDVUE instrument should be to gather as many device
parameters as possible. See Appendix A for proper configuration of the THUM WirelessHART adapter for optimum OPC
data gathering from FIELDVUE digital valve controllers. See Appendix B for information on the configuration of OPC
parameters in the Rosemount WirelessHART Gateway.

Refer to table 1 for information available via the Gateway OPC Server.

Configuration of a THUM Wireless Adapter for Optimum OPC Data
Coverage

1. Scope

This procedure is the site infrastructure guide for setting up a WirelessHART network of FIELDVUE digital valve
controllers for use as a read-only data gathering for OPC data in table 1 provided by Rosemount Smart Wireless
Gateway.

2. Emerson Wireless HART Equipment

The following Emerson WirelessHART equipment is required to provide wireless HART communication connectivity:

D A WirelessHART 775 THUM Adapter installed on every FIELDVUE digital valve controller.

D One or more Smart WirelessHART Gateway 1410 (25 device tags) or 1420 (100 device tags) with the Dual Ethernet

connect (Option 2) and the D2, D4, or D6 Data Protocol option that includes support of the OPC data protocol.

D Proper physical placement and sufficient number of wireless devices to support a robust field WirelessHART mesh
