Supplementary Installation and Operating Instructions IFC 300 HART
HC275, FC375, AMS, PDM, FDT DTM
1 General Information
The IFC 300 is a “four-wire” transmitter with 4...20mA current output and HART® capability. Dependent on jumper
setting and wiring the current output can operate as active or passive output.
General characteristics of the IFC 300 HART® interface:
• Multidrop Mode is supported
• Burst Mode is not supported
Electrical connection: Refer to section “Electrical connection: outputs and inputs” of the following manual:
•“Handbook IFC 300 signal converter” (KROHNE)
There are two ways of using the HART® communication:
a) As a point-to-point connection between the IFC 300 and the HART® master equipment. The instrument's current

b) As a multipoint connection (multidrop) with up to 15 devices (IFC 300 or other HART® equipment) in parallel. The
instrument's current outputs must be passive.

In case that the IFC 300's current output shall work continuously active a 'third wire' is needed to properly connect it
together with two-wire loop powered devices in the same network.

3 HART Communicator 275 (HC275), Field Communicator 375 (FC375)
3.1 Installation
The IFC 300 HART Device Description has to be installed on the HC275 and FC375 respectively. Otherwise the user
will work with the instrument as a generic one thus loosing opportunity for entire instrument control.
For installing DDs on the HC275 a ‘HART Communicator Module Programmer’ is needed (se e details in the ‘Module
Programmer User’s Guide’).
For installing DDs on the FC375 the ‘Easy Upgrade Programming Utility’ is needed and the FC375 must have a
System Card with ‘Easy Upgrade’ option (see details in the ‘375 Field Communicator User’s Manual’).
3.2 Operating
Refer to the IFC 300 Menu Tree HC275 / FC375 (Attachment A).
The IFC 300 operation via HC275 / FC375 is made quite close to the manual instrument control via keypad with the
restriction that parameters of the device's "service" menu are not supported and simulation is possible only for
current outputs. The online help of each parameter contains its function number as a reference to the device’s local
display and the “Handbook”.
Parameter protection for custody transfer is the same as on the device's local display. Other specific protection
mechanisms like "password quick setup" and "password setup" are not supported via HART.
The set of parameters of the HC275 “standard configuration” is only a partial set. However th e HC275 “full
configuration” contains a complete set of supported parameters. Both types of configurations can be transferred to
AMS.
The FC375 always creates a “full” configuration for interaction with AMS. Still the FC375 considers only a partial
parameter set (like the HC275 “standard configuration”) when sending it to a device.
4 Asset Management Solutions (AMS)
4.1 Installation
If the IFC 300 Device Description is not already installed on the AMS System a so called Installation Kit IFC 300
HART AMS is needed (available as download from KROHNE ‘Download Centre’ on the internet or on floppy disk /
CD-ROM from KROHNE).
For installing the DD with the Installation Kit refer to the “AMS Intelligent Device Manager Books Online" section
"Basic AMS Functionality /Device Configurations / Installing Device Types / Procedures /Install device types from
media”. Please read also the “readme.txt”, which is also contained in the Installation Kit.
4.2 Operating
Refer to the IFC 300 Menu Tree AMS (Attachment B).
Due to AMS requirements and conventions the IFC 300 operation differs to some extent from operation with HC275 /
FC375 and via local keypad. Furthermore parameters of the device's "service" menu are not supported and
simulation is possible only for current outputs. The online help of each parameter contains its function number as a
reference to the device’s local display and the “Handbook”.
Parameter protection for custody transfer is the same as on the device's local display. Other specific protection
mechanisms like "password quick setup" and "password setup" are not supported via HART.

5 Process Device Manager (PDM)
5.1 Installation
If the IFC 300 Device Description is not already installed on the PDM System a so called Device Install IFC 300
HART PDM is needed (available as download from KROHNE ‘Download Centre’ on the internet or on floppy disk /
CD-ROM from KROHNE).
For installing the DD on PDM V 5.2 refer to the “PDM Manual” section 11.2:”Device Install / Integrating Devices in SIMATIC PDM with 'Device Install'".
For installing the DD on PDM V 6.0 refer to the “PDM Manual” section 13:”Integrating Devices”.
Please read also the “readme.txt”, which is also contained in the Device Install.
5.2 Operating
Refer to the IFC 300 Menu Tree PDM (Attachment C).
Due to PDM requirements and conventions the IFC 300 operation differs to some extent from operation with HC275 /
FC375 and via local keypad. Furthermore parameters of the device's "service" menu are not supported and
simulation is possible only for current outputs. The online help of each parameter contains its function number as a
reference to the device’s local display and the “Handbook”.
Parameter protection for custody transfer is the same as on the device's local display. Other specific protection
mechanisms like "password quick setup" and "password setup" are not supported via HART.
6 Field Device Tool Device Type Manager (FDT DTM)
6.1 Installation
If the IFC 300 Device Type Manager is not already installed on the Field Device Tool container a setup is needed
(available as download from KROHNE ‘Download Centre’ on the internet or on CD-ROM from KROHNE).
For installing the DTM with the setup refer to the setup’s accompanying documentation.
6.2 Operating
The IFC 300 operation via DTM is made quite close to the manual instrument control via keypad. Refer to the
device’s local display and the “Handbook”.
