2.4 Intended use
Identification The following identification is affixed to the Multiplexer Master:
The KFD-HMM-16(referred to as "Multiplexer Master" or "Multiplexer" in the
following sections) and the KFD0-HMS-16 (referred to as "Multiplexer Slave" or
"Multiplexer" in the following sections) provides full HART access to up to 256 field
devices and hence operation with the conventional 4 mA ... 20 mA current loops. It
thus acts as a transparent gateway between the service station (PC or PCS (Process
Control System) and the transmitters.
The Multiplexer can be used within zone 2 hazardous areas or in the safe area.
Power is provided by a 24 V (nominal voltage) DC power supply. Connection to the
PCS or PC is via an RS 485 interface.
It should be stressed that the Multiplexer is approved for use in zone 2 and
therefore may not be used in zone 0 or 1 hazardous areas. If the equipment is used
in conjunction with intrinsically safe or associated apparatus, then this use must
take place in front of the Ex-barrier (e. g. transmitter power supply device).
Reference should be made to the statement of conformity.

3.1.3 Description of the hardware
The HART Multiplexer can operate up to 256 analog transmitters. The built-in Slave
unit operates the first 16 loops, and a maximum of a further 15 KFD0-HMS-16 Slaves
can be connected.
The external connections are shown in Figure 3.1 and Figure 3.2.
The power supply (24 V DC nominal voltage) is provided via the Power Rail or
terminals 17 and 18. The optional Slave units (KFD0-HMS-16) or the RPI control
module (KSD2-HC) are connected with the Master via a 14-core flat cable
(K-HM14). Its connector is placed on the same housing side as the terminals for the
RS 485 interface and the voltage supply. The analog signals for each unit are
connected separately via a 26-core cable. 16 leads are provided for the HART
signals of the analog instrument circuits, the other 10 are connected to ground. The
minimum load resistance of the analog instrument circuits is 230 (min. load
resistance in accordance with the HART specification), the max. load resistance is
500 . Load resistances of up to 1000 are possible, however, resistance values
greater than 500 can interfere with the HART communication. The connector for
these connections is located on the top of the housing. A process control system or a
PC can be connected via a RS 485 interface (terminals 13, 14 and 15). Up to 31
KFD2-HMM-16 can be operated on one RS 485 interface. Terminals 19, 20 and 21
can be used to connect additional stations to the RS 485 interface. The DIP switch
on the housing front is for the setting of the RS 485 address and the baud rate.

3.1.4 Galvanic isolation
he voltage supply, the analog signals and the RS 485 interface are galvanically
separated. This galvanic isolation is achieved through the use of transformers and
opto couplers.
For the direct current components, the individual HART channels are isolated by
means of two capacitors. Thus the 4 mA ... 20 mA signal is not affected.
The connected current repeaters are galvanically interconnected unilaterally
through the common ground connection of the analog signals.
If the galvanic isolation is to be properly maintained, the individual ground cables
must be isolated by capacitors. Suitable Fl and MB boards can be supplied by
Pepperl+Fuchs for this purpose.
Notwithstanding the common ground connection of the analog signals from the
Masters/Slaves, the galvanic isolation of the current repeaters is secured if
• FI and MB boards are used, which are fitted with capacitors.
• KFD2-STC4-Ex1 or KFD2-STC4-Ex2 Ex isolation modules are used as current
repeaters.
3.1.5 All the functions at a glance
The following list gives all the functions once again at a glance:
• 16 channels, extendable to 256 channels by the connection of up to
15 KFD0-HMS-16 Slaves
• up to 7936 loops per interface (31 Multiplexers with in each case 256 channels)
• automatic search of all existing HART field devices (REBUILD)
• facility for self-standing cyclic interrogation of the HART variables (SCAN)
• acts as a primary or secondary Master
• fast RS 485 interface (multidrop) with up to 38400 Baud
• integrated modem

Product specification
3.2 Description of the HART communication
The HART protocol (Highway Addressable Remote Transducer) is supported by
many conventional 4 mA ... 20 mA field devices, which thus enable digital
communication for configuration and servicing purposes. Many device parameters
and also the measured values themselves can thus be digitally transferred to and
from the device. This digital communication runs in parallel with the 4 mA ... 20 mA
signal on the same cable. This is possible through a current modulation, which is
superimposed on the user signal.
Figure 3.3 The modulated HART signal
HART is a Master-Slave protocol: a field device does only respond when requested
(except in "Burst mode"). The message duration is several hundred milliseconds, so
that between two and three messages can be transferred per second.
On HART, there are three groups of commands:
• The Universal commands; these must be supported by all field devices,
• the Common practice commands; these are pre-defined commands, suitable for
many field devices, which, if they are supported by the device, must be
implemented in the pre-defined form,
• device-specific commands; these are commands, which are particularly suitable
for this field device.
The HART Multiplexer contains commands in all three groups. Details of the
supported commands are given in section 9.1.

3.3 System construction
3.3.1 System description
In process engineering plants, there are many field devices distributed over a large
area. The characteristic values of these field devices must be monitored, for
example, in the context of ISO 9000 and recorded and adapted to changes in
process parameters.
The HART Multiplex System from Pepperl+Fuchs enables on-line communication
between a PC and "smart" field devices that support the HART protocol.
SMART transmitters and intelligent valve positioners enable information such as
measurement range and tag number to be stored in the field device itself. Access to
these data is usually obtained using a handheld terminal. This means, that when
changes to information are required, connection to the field device must be carried
out "by hand".
When specific data has to be recorded in the context of quality assurance - in
accordance with ISO 9000 - this means that there is an increased demand on the
process control system or the DCS. For example, the data has to be cyclically
interrogated and then stored by the system in a database.
The HART Multiplex System from Pepperl+Fuchs provides the coupling between the
PC and the intelligent "HART capable" field devices. All access to the field device
takes place in parallel with the transfer of the 4 mA ... 20 mA measuring signal and
therefore has no affect on the processing of measured values by the process control
system.
3.3.2 Service station
The system thus provides a subordinate service interface. It is also possible to obtain
measured values through the HART Multiplex System. On field devices, which are
installed in hazardous areas, the coupling takes place on the safe area side of the
current repeaters.
Pepperl+Fuchs can supply the appropriate SMART transmitter power supplies
(e.g.KFD2-STC4-**) and SMART repeater (e.g.KFD2-STV4-**). Similarly, the
HART Multiplex System can also be connected to other SMART Ex-isolation stages.
This means that existing systems can be expanded very easily, thus taking full
advantage of the HART communication system.
The system comprises a max. of 31 HART Multiplexer Masters, which are connected
to the PC via a RS 485 interface. Each HART Multiplexer Master can control up to 15
HART Multiplexer Slaves. Each Multiplexer, irrespective of Master or Slave, can
connect up to 16 transmitters.
Thus one PC can be used to address up to 7936 field devices for the exchange of
data. Operation using a handheld terminal also remains possible, since the HART
protocol accepts two Masters in one system, i. e. PC and handheld terminal.
Besides the control system a PC is frequently used as the service station, with which
the parameter functions or data logging functions can be carried out. Operating
programs for the PC are available from various manufacturers (see section 3.3.3) to
provide the necessary back-up for this purpose.
However, in some cases the communication is provided by a process control system
via a RS 485 interface direct (via the HART Multiplexer) to the field devices without a
connected service station. But the low speed of the HART communication imposes
limitations on this method of operation.

3.3.3 Integration in the operating software (Asset Management Systems)
The full potential of the HART Multiplexer System is realized through integration in
modern Asset Management Systems such as PACTware
SIMATIC PDM (Siemens), AMS (Fisher-Rousemount), Cornerstone (Applied
System Technologies) and Valve Manager (Neles Automation). These operating
tools combine the device functions of the Multiplexer in the form of menu commands
in a unified interface providing a very convenient method of operation. The
presentation and description of the functions in the individual operating tools can be
very different, however; thus a generally applicable presentation is not possible here.
Information on the configuration, parameter assignment, operation and diagnostics
options of the Multiplexer is provided in the documentation accompanying the
various operating tools.

basic wiring options should be described here.
Field devices and DCS are connected via Termination Boards in every case. More

3.3.5 HART Multiplexer Slave
The HART Multiplexer Slave is supplied from the HART Multiplexer Master via the
14-core flat cable. The contacting of the flat cable is provided via IDC connectors, so
that the cable can be tapped at any position. By this means, the power supply and
data cables are looped on from station to station. The address 1 ... 15 is set via a 16step rotary switch. Address 0 is reserved for the Multiplexer Master and must
therefore not be used. If a number of Slaves are operated on the KFD2-HMM-16,
different addresses must be assigned. The sequence therefore plays no role in this.
The analog signals are fed via a 26 core flat cable into the KFD0-HMS-16. 16 of
these are intended for the HART signal of the analog instrument circuit (the
remaining 10 are to ground) (for the assignment, see section 9.2).
The minimum load resistance of the analog measuring circuit is 230 (minimum
load impedance in accordance with HART specification), the maximum resistive load
being 500 . Load resistances of up to 1000 are possible, however, resistance
values greater than 500 can interfere with the HART communication.
Slave connection HART Multiplexer Masters and Slaves must be connected together via a separate K-

Figure 3.7 Front view HART Multiplexer Slave
HM14 flat cable.
The length of cable required should be stated when ordering. Hence the wiring of the
HART Multiplexer is significantly simplified and the danger of wiring faults is
excluded.
The Multiplexer also functions as a HART device (see also section 5.4.5). However,
due to the incorporation into the operating software of the service station (see
section 3.3.3), this remains concealed from the user. The HART commands that are
supported by the Multiplexer can be found in section 9.1.
For HART communication with the transmitters, the commands of the service station
are passed through without modifications.

4.1 Mounting
The K-System allows three different types of mounting:
1. wall or panel mounting
2. mounting on 35 mm DIN EN 60715 mounting rail
– TH 35-7.5 (installation height 7.5 mm)
– TH 35-15 (installation height 15 mm, material thickness 1.5 mm)
3. mounting on 35 mm DIN rail with a Power Rail insert
Wall or panel mounting Panel mounting is only recommended when a very small number of isolation
components must be installed.
Mounting the device on the wall.
Pull the two clip fasteners out of the back of the device until the clips audibly click
into place.
Fasten the device to the wall or panel with 3 mm screws.
The device is mounted
Mounting on
DIN rail
When mounting on DIN rail, the device is simply snapped into place.

The wiring effort for power supply with the isolation modules of the K-Systems can
be greatly reduced by using Power Rail.

Mounting on DIN rail with
Power Rail
The Power Rail UPR-03-* is an insert for a DIN rail which Pepperl+Fuchs has
developed for this application.
The Power Rail provides two leads for power supply of the modules and one lead for
centralized error messages. The devices of the K-System are supplied with power
through these two leads.
Figure 4.2
Standard devices of types KFD2-... and KCD2-... have gold-plated contacts to
connect to the power supply rails of the Power Rail. By snapping it onto the DIN rail,
the device automatically receives power. Thus separate wiring of the power supply is
eliminated. An included cover provides for the mechanical and electrical protection
of unused spaces. Furthermore, any reserved spaces are automatically connected to
the power supply.
Third-party devices which can be mounted on a DIN EN 60715 mounting rail can
easily be mounted on the Power Rail as well. Mixed devices from different device
manufacturers are thus possible.
Figure 4.3
When supplying power via the Power Rail, the wiring effort is greatly reduced.
Moreover, there is the option of the centralized error message and redundant power
supply. Failure of the power supply is indicated through the message contact of the
power supply component.
