1. Getting Started
1.1. Requirements
PC with PACTWare 4.1 or later
HART Communication DTM package from CodeWrights (accessible at the Pepperl+Fuchs Homepage)
WirelessHART DTM Collection from Pepperl+Fuchs
HART Modem, e.g. Pepperl+Fuchs HM-MT-USB
Firmware Update Package (accessible via Pepperl+Fuchs sales contact)
1.2. Preparation
The WirelessHART Adapter should be powered by a battery of type W-BAT-B2-Li
GG.
A connection to the adapter is necessary for the rmware update. Depending on
the conditions at site, the connection can either be established with the help of a
HART Modem or wirelessly via a WirelessHART Gateway. This manual will explain
the rmware update via HART modem, but it is also possible to perform the same
steps with a wirelessly connected adapter.
Connect the clamps of the HART Modem to terminals 5+6 or 7+8 of the WirelessHART Adapter. On the other side the WirelessHART Modem should be connected
to your computer, e.g. via an USB port. Make sure you have installed the necessary
drivers for the HART Modem as well as the DTM packages and PACTWare.
