1 General Information
The M8E is a two-wire transmitter with 4...20mA current output and HART capability.
General Characteristics of the M8E HART interface:
• Multidrop Mode is supported
• Burst Mode is not supported
There are two way s of using the HART communication:
1.1 Point-to-Point Analog/Digital Mode
a) As a point -to-point connection between the M8E and the HART master equipment.

In case devices with 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.

Transmitter
• All parameters and dynamic data are involved in HART transactions, i.e. can be handled from remote hosts. For
details refer to the “Transmitter -Specific Command Specification”.
4 HART/Field Communicator 275/375 (HC275/FC375)
4.1 Installation
The HC275/FC375 has to be programmed with the M8E HART Device Description. Otherwise the HC275/FC375
user will work with the instrument as a generic one thus loosing opportunity for entire instrument control.
4.2 Operating
Refer to the M8E Menu Tree HC275/FC375 (Attachment A).
The M8E operation via HC275/FC375 is made quite close to the manual instrument control via keypad.
The online help of eac h parameter contains its function number as a reference to the device’s local display and the
“Installation and Operating Instructions”.
While storing data in HC275 from connected instrument, the difference between “standard configuration” of HC275
and its “full configuration” consists in some read-only parameters (sensor limits, device modules’ IDs, etc.) that are
either transferred to AMS (“full configuration”) or are shown on AMS tabs as empty fields (“standard configuration”).
Clear the latter correspo nds to situation when HC275 ⇒ AMS configurations’ transfer is undertaken.

5 Asset Management Solutions (AMS)
5.1 Installation
If the M8E Device Description is not already installed on the AMS System a so called Installation Kit M8E HART AMS
is needed (availabl e on floppy disk from KROHNE or as download from KROHNE Internet page).
For installing the DD with the Installation Kit refer to the “AMS User's Guide” section 3:”Managing HART Devices” /
“Adding new Device Types to AMS” / “Install Device Types Manually”.
5.2 Operating
Refer to the M8E Menu Tree AMS (Attachment B).
Due to AMS requirements and conventions the M8E operation differs a little from operation with HC275/FC375 and
via local keypad.
The online help of each parameter contains its function number as a reference to the device’s local display and the
“Installation and Operating Instructions”.
Due to implementation peculiarities (refer to section 3, DDL) after the “Configuration Properties...” view is open, its
‘Process Input’ tab has empty fields for format specifiers (also local DDL variables). That is normal: AMS does not
initialize the local variables, their default values are used after downloading.
6 Process Device Management (PDM)
6.1 Installation
If the M8E Device Description is not already installed on the PDM System a so called Device Install is needed
(available on floppy disk from KROHNE or as download from KROHNE Internet page).
Before installing the DD with the Installation Kit, please read the “readme.txt”, which is also contained in the Device
Install.
6.2 Operating
Refer to the M8E Menu Tree PDM (Attachment C-E).
Due to PDM requirements and conventions the M8E operation differs a little from operation with HC275/FC375 and
via local keypad.
The online help of each parameter contains its function number as a reference to the device’s local display and the
“Installation and Operating Instructions”.
