1. Introduction
HART Device Simulator (called HDS) is the HART device simulation
software developed by ICP DAS. It can be used to simulate multi HART
slave devices simultaneously to exchange data with HART master device
by using ICP DAS HART converter (like: I-7567 / I-7570 / I-7547)
connected to any COM port (USB / 232 / 485 / Ethernet). By this way,
users can develop or verify the HART master program without any HART
slave device. The below figure is the application of HDS.
Figure 1-1 : HDS Application
1.1 HDS Features
Free HART slave device simulation software
(Must work with one of ICP DAS HART converter: I-7567/ I-7570/ I-7547)
Support a lot of HART commands (like: CMD0 / 1 / 2 / 3 …)
Provide the setting for the long frame address of HART device.
Provide the setting for the value and unit of HART command 3.
Support 16 HART devices simulation simultaneously (address 0 ~ 15).
Exchange data with HART master device by using ICP DAS HART
converter (like: I-7567 / I-7570 / I-7547)
Support HART communication data log.
Provide the “adjustable” HART device status bit

1.2 HDS Information
Compatible with command revision 5, 6, 7 of HART protocol.
When the COM port is open, the HDS will listen for the incoming
requests and response data.
Only the HART simulation device with the “Enabled” option checked will
response data.
The field of the “Short Frame Address” is fixed.
The field of the “Long Frame Address” with 5 bytes can be set to
simulate the different HART manufacturer’s slave device.
All the HART communication data can be logged to file.
The four main values and units of PV / SV / TV /QV of HART command
3 can be set for every HART simulation device.
