1.1 Overview

This manual covers both the hardware – the IEC 62591 Wireless Interface module for the Series 2 ROC800 RTU, the IEC 62591 Wireless Interface module for the FloBoss™ 107 flow computer, and the Emerson™ Wireless 781S Smart Antenna (“781S”) – and the Field Tools software you need to configure and commission the hardware components.
Note: The IEC 62591 Wireless Interface uses open source software.
Refer to Open Source Software Listing document (included in the same .zip file as this manual) for a complete listing of all components. Source code is available upon request by contacting Remote Automation Solutions’ Technical Support.
This chapter details the structure of this manual and provides an overview of the IEC 62591 Wireless Interface and its components.
The International Electrotechnical Commission’s 62591 standard (commonly called WirelessHART®) is a global IEC-approved standard that specifies an interoperable self-organizing mesh technology in which field devices form wireless networks that dynamically mitigate obstacles in the process environment. This architecture creates a cost­effective automation alternative that does not require wiring and other supporting infrastructure.
Remote Automation Solutions IEC 62591implementation consists of an IEC 62591 Wireless Interface module installed in a Series 2 ROC800 or an FB107 device. The module is wired to a field-installed 781S. The wiring powers the 781S and transmits signals between the 781S and a number of field-installed WirelessHART devices. (Figure 1-1 shows a ROC809/FB107, a 781S, and several WirelessHART devices.) The ROC800 implementation supports up to 60 devices at a 4-second communications rate, while the FB107 implementation supports up to 20 devices at a 2-second communications rate. Refer to the product data sheets for each device for additional device/communication rate values.

2.2.4 Grounding the 781S
For further information on grounding the 781S, refer to the documentation that accompanied the device (Emerson Wireless 781S
Smart Antenna Quick Start Guide, part 00825-0700-4410, Rev AB).

2.3 Wiring the Module and 781S

Note: Although its housing is permanently sealed, the 781S is prewired
and only needs to be connected to the module. Ensure that wiring between the IEC 62591 module and the 781S meets all appropriate local requirements (use of conduit, etc.).
This section assumes you have already successfully installed the IEC 62591 module in either a ROC800 or a FB107 and installed the 781S in its permanent field location.
Communications between the IEC 62591 module and the 781S occur through an RS-485 connection. Remote Automation Solutions recommends that you use shielded, twisted-pair cable for I/O signal wiring. The twisted-pair minimizes signal errors caused by electro­magnetic interference (EMI), Radio Frequency Interference (RFI), and transients. The removable terminal blocks on the module accept wire sizes 16 to 22 AWG.
2.3.1 Wiring the 781S
1. Power down the IEC 62591 module (if it is currently powered).
2. Connect the positive power lead to the “+” power terminal and the
negative power lead to the “–” power terminal.
3. Connect the data + lead to the “A (+)” terminal and the data – lead
to the “B (–)” terminal (see Figure 2-3).
4. Connect the grounding wire to the modules and seal any unused
conduit connectors.
If you are connecting multiple antennas, repeat this process for terminal connection 2.

2.3.2 Wiring the IEC 62591 Module to the 781S
Note: Although its housing is permanently sealed, the 781S is prewired
and only needs to be connected to the module. Examine the two leads coming out of the 781S and identify which are the communication (RS-485) leads (white and blue) and the power leads (red and black).
Since the ROC800 and FB107 modules use the same PCB, you wire the modules to the 781S in the same way. Figure 2-4 shows wiring for the FB107 IEC 62591 module; Figure 2-5 shows wiring for the ROC800 IEC 62591 module.
Note: The wire loop between connectors 1 and 3 and between
connectors 2 and 4 provides termination for the RS-485 connections between the 781S and the module.

After you have wired the Emerson Wireless 781S Smart Antenna (“781S”) to the IEC 62591 module and applied power to the module, you use the AMS Device Configurator to configure transmitters for the wireless network. You then use ROCLINK 800 to activate (or “commission”) each WirelessHART device into the entire network.
Note: Refer to the AMS Device Manager Installation Guide (part
AW7030M01V131EN) for complete instructions on using the AMS Device Configurator to configure the WirelessHART devices with the long tag name, Network ID, and Join Key.
Keep in mind that for each device configuration and commissioning is a two-step process:
1. Configure each device using the AMS Device Configurator and a

IEC 62591 Wireless Interface Instruction Manual (for ROC800-Series and FloBoss 107)

3.1 Overview

As indicated previously, a wireless interface network consists of wireless devices (up to 60 in a ROC800-based network or up to 20 in an FB107-based network), a 781S, and an IEC 62591 module installed in an FB107 or a ROC800. Use a PC running ROCLINK 800 for the configuration and commissioning tasks described in this chapter.
Figure 3-1. IEC 62591 Wireless Interface
3.1.1 Configuring Devices and Planning the Network
Before you can use a WirelessHART device, you must first configure it. For this task (which is outside the scope of this manual) you may use a hand-held field communicator (such as Emerson’s 375 or 475 Field Communicator) or the AMS Device Configurator. Ideally, you configure individual devices at a workbench in a protected environment, although you can field-configure a device you might add to the network. During the configuration, you identify the Network ID to which the device eventually belongs and provide the network-specific Join Key (see Network ID and Join Key).
During configuration, you also give the wireless device a 32-character tag based on its use or location (such as PUMP1TEMPORARY, PUMP2WESTPRESSURE, or WELL02NORTHLEVEL). The serial number for the device provides further identifiers the configuration software uses. We also suggest you use all capital letters for the tags, which correlates to the way the system stores this information.
3-2 Configuration and Commissioning Revised October 2021
IEC 62591 Wireless Interface Instruction Manual (for ROC800-Series and FloBoss 107)
Notes:
Tag names cannot exceed 32 characters, and tag names must be
unique to the wireless network.
Use upper-case (capital) letters for tags names; this corresponds to
how the program internally stores tag names.
The individual devices should fit into a general organizational plan for your fields. By identifying logical groups and pre-assigning devices to those groups, you can eliminate guesswork during commissioning, efficiently define networks, and more quickly begin to acquire data.
Note: An important restriction in planning networks is to know that a
network can have only one Network ID, one Join Key, one 781S, and one controller (a ROC800 supporting up to 60 devices or a FB107 supporting up to 20 devices).
3.1.2 Network ID and Join Key
A Network ID defines one logical grouping of WirelessHART devices, all of which send their information to one 781S. (You define a device’s Network ID when you first configure the device using a 375 or 475 Field Communicator or the AMS Device Configurator.)
Note: A Network ID cannot be all zeros (such as 00000).
The Join Key is the password that allows a device to access its defined network. During configuration, you also provide the device with its network-specific Join Key. During configuration and commissioning, ROCLINK 800 uses the Network ID and Join Key to create the network (see Figure 3-3).
3.1.3 Rosemount THUM Adapter
Note: Each THUM adapter supports only one wired HART device.
Rosemount’s THUM Adapter provides wireless connectivity to a wired HART device. If you have already commissioned a wired HART device into your network and want to connect it to a THUM adapter, you must first decommission the device, attach the THUM adapter, and then re­commission the device. For further information about THUM adapters, refer to:
Emerson Wireless 775 THUM Adapter Reference Manual,

The following sections discuss how to use these tabs to manage your network.
3.2.1 Commissioning Devices
You use the Commission tab to individually or collectively commission devices.
Figure 3-5. Commission tab
This screen has two lists, Uncommissioned and Commissioned. When the Status field on the Network screen displays On-line, the 781S automatically begins adding devices to the Uncommissioned list. To commission a device, you move it to the Commissioned list in either of two ways:
Select the device (see Figure 3-5) and click Commission.
ROCLINK 800 places the device in the first available empty row on the Commissioned list.
Notes:
To select several devices, press Ctrl and left-click each
additional device. Click Commission when you have finished selecting devices.
When commissioning a HART device connected to an Emerson
Wireless 775 THUM Adapter, the system detects both the HART device and the THUM Adapter and places them both in the Uncommissioned list. Commission the device as normal. Commission the THUM Adapter only if you need the Adapter’s process data.
Select the device and “drag” it to a position on the Commissioned
list.
3-8 Configuration and Commissioning Revised October 2021
IEC 62591 Wireless Interface Instruction Manual (for ROC800-Series and FloBoss 107)
The device does not disappear from the Uncommissioned List until
communication issues have been resolved.
The number of rows on the Commission screen correlates to the number of wireless devices your controller supports. Each row represents a specific logical position. If, during commissioning, you want the controller to store information from a specific wireless device in a specific logical position, you can commission that device to that logical by selecting that device and “dragging” it to the appropriate position on the Commissioned list.
Note: Once you commission a device to a particular logical, you
cannot drag it another logical position. You must first decommission the device and then re-commission it to the new logical position.
After a few minutes, the device moves from the Uncommissioned to the Commissioned list:
Figure 3-6. Commissioned Device
Another indicator that the device has been successfully commissioned is the activation of the Transmitter tab.
Note: If you change the tag for a transmitter using either a hand-held
375/475 device or the AMS Device Configurator, the new tag may not display until the device appears on the Commissioned list.
Decommissioning a Device
If you decide to remove a device from your network, use this screen to decommission the device. Select the device and drag it to the Uncommissioned list.

Note: Remember to adjust or redefine any TLPs you have designated
to accumulate the information for the decommissioned device’s logical position.
Replacing a Device
If a particular wireless device in your network stops working, you can easily replace it with a similar device.
Note: Using this option does not require you to adjust or redefine any
TLPs you have designated to accumulate the information for the decommissioned device’s logical position. The new device assumes all parameters you have defined for the old device.
First, configure the device for the network, assigning it the appropriate Network ID and Join Key. Install the device in the field. Start ROCLINK 800, select the IEC 62591 module, and display the Commission tab. When the replacement device appears on the Uncommissioned list, select it and drag it on top of the non-working device. This tells ROCLINK 800 that you want this new device to assume all the defined characteristics of the old device.
ROCLINK 800 displays a verification dialog to prevent you from accidentally replacing a device:
Figure 3-7. Device Replacement Verification Dialog
Click Yes to complete the replacement. ROCLINK commissions the new device and automatically decommissions the old device, moving it to the Uncommissioned list.

3.3.2 Commissioning Devices
When you select the Commission tab, ROCLINK 800 displays the Commission screen (see Figure 3-16). You use this screen to individually or collectively commission devices.
Figure 3-14. Commission tab
This screen has two lists, Uncommissioned and Commissioned. When the Status field on the Network screen displays On-line, ROCLINK 800 automatically begins adding devices to the Uncommissioned list. To commission a device, you move it to the Commissioned list in either of two ways:
Select the device and click Commission. ROCLINK 800 places the
device in the first available empty position.
Notes:
To select several devices, press Ctrl and left-click each
additional device. Click Commission when you have finished selecting devices.
When commissioning a HART device connected to an Emerson
Wireless 775 THUM Adapter, the system detects both the HART device and the THUM Adapter and places them both in the Uncommissioned list. Commission the device as normal. Commission the THUM Adapter only if you need the Adapter’s process data.
3-26 Configuration and Commissioning Revised October 2021
IEC 62591 Wireless Interface Instruction Manual (for ROC800-Series and FloBoss 107)
Select the device and “drag” it to a position on the Commissioned
list.
The number of rows on the Commission screen correlates to the number of wireless devices your controller supports. Each row represents a specific logical position. If, during commissioning, you want the controller to store information from a specific wireless device in a specific logical position, you can commission that device to that logical by selecting that device and “dragging” it to the appropriate position on the Commissioned list.
Note: Once you commission a device to a particular logical, you
cannot drag it another logical position. You must first decommission the device and then recommission it to the new logical position.
When you select a device in the Uncommissioned column, the Commission button activates:

Note: If you change the tag for a transmitter using either a hand-held
375/475 device or AMS Device Configurator, the new tag may not display until the device appears on the Commissioned list.
Decommissioning a Device
If you decide to remove a device from your network, use this screen to decommission the device. Select the device and drag it to the Uncommissioned list.
Note: Remember to adjust or redefine any TLPs you have designated
to accumulate the information for the decommissioned device’s logical position.
Replacing a Device
If a particular wireless device in your network stops working, you can easily replace it with a similar device.
Note: Using this option does not require you to adjust or redefine any
TLPs you have designated to accumulate the information for the decommissioned device’s logical position. The new device assumes all parameters you have defined for the old device.
First, configure the device for the network, assigning it the appropriate Network ID and Join Key. Install the device in the field. Start ROCLINK 800, select the IEC 62591 module, and display the Commission tab. When the replacement device appears on the Uncommissioned list, select it and drag it on top of the non-working

This chapter provides general guidelines for troubleshooting the IEC62591 module and the Emerson Wireless 781S Smart Antenna (“781S”).

4.1 General Guidelines

Before you begin to troubleshoot the interface, you should observe the following guidelines:
Don’t overlook the obvious. With all the activity involved in
setting up a wireless network, it is easy to accidentally unplug an antenna or disconnect power from a device. Check those things first. (For a list of common problems, see the Troubleshooting Checklist at the end of this chapter.)
If something worked previously but has now stopped working,
did you change something? For example, if you re-downloaded the
application and now it has stopped working, it’s possible that the change you made to the application might have caused a problem.
Adopt a systematic approach. Don’t try to solve the problem by
changing several different things at once. Change one thing, see if it causes an improvement, and make notes about what you did. Then you can try to make other changes. If you haphazardly begin swapping hardware modules, re-routing cables, and changing software parameters, you may end up in worse shape than when you started, or you may end up masking symptoms of an underlying problem.
Try to isolate the problem. For example, if you can communicate
with some wireless devices but not others, then concentrate on what’s different with the non-functional wireless devices, or their configuration parameters. If you can’t communicate with any wireless devices, you might not have correctly configured network parameters in the application, or there may be a problem at the 781S.
Revised October 2021 Troubleshooting 4-1
IEC62591 Wireless Interface Instruction Manual (for ROC800-Series and FloBoss 107)
Use the hardware and software diagnostic tools provided with
the product. The IEC 62591 wireless application includes error
codes which you can check; often these will identify configuration problems for you.
Collect and save as much relevant information as you can. If
possible, make notes concerning what steps you took leading up to the initial occurrence of the problem. Save printouts, screen captures, error codes, and so on so you can refer to them if you have to call for technical assistance.

4.2 Common Troubleshooting Techniques

Common troubleshooting techniques are given below:
4.2.1 Identifying which System Components are Working
The wireless interface has several different pieces of hardware and software. A failure in any one of them can cause problems, so you should consider all the different pieces to try to identify the source of your problem. For hardware you have:
FB107/ROC800 controller with IEC 62591 module installed in a
slot
PC or laptop connecting the IEC 62591
Cable between IEC 62591 module and 781S
One or more wireless devices in the wireless network
Field Communicator (optional)
For software you have:
The IEC 62591 application running in ROCLINK 800
IEC 62591 protocol software running in the 781S and in all the
wireless devices
4.2.2 Conducting Basic Hardware Checks
Ensure power is connected.
Check that all modules are properly seated in slots.
Ensure cable connections are good between the 781S and controller,
and between the PC/laptop and the controller.
Check status LEDs on the controller.
Check for indications on the 781S. See its accompanying
documentation (Emerson Wireless 781S Smart Antenna Quick Start
Guide, part 00825-0700-4410, Rev AB) for details.
4-2 Troubleshooting Revised October 2021
IEC62591 Wireless Interface Instruction Manual (for ROC800-Series and FloBoss 107)
4.2.3 Looking for Possible Configuration Errors
Does the IEC 62591 Wireless Interface support your wireless
device(s)?
Did you place the IEC62591 module in the proper slot as specified
in the IEC 62591 application?
Did you assign a unique Long Tag Name to each wireless device
and specify the exact same long tag names in the IEC 62591 application?
Did you assign a Network ID which must be the same in each
wireless device in this network, and must also match the Network ID defined in the IEC 62591 application?
Did you assign a Join Key which must be the same in each wireless
device in this network, and must also match the Join Key defined in the IEC 62591 application?
4.2.4 Rebooting after a Power Loss
In the event of low power or complete power loss, if the IEC module fails to successfully reboot, the FB107 and/or ROC800 raise Communication Failure and Point Failure alarms, indicating that IEC 62591 communications are not functioning. To resolve the issue, remove and re-apply power to the RTU.
4.2.5 USB Flash Drive Not Recognized
Module initialization can take up to five minutes. During this time, the USB port on the module is not recognized. The module is initialized when the Status field on the Network tab includes the word Online. If a USB flash drive is not recognized after module initialization, power cycle your device and try again.

4.3 Errors from the IEC 62591 Transmitter Tab

You can use the Transmitter Tab in ROCLINK 800 to check if there are errors in configuration:
4.3.1 NaN value
The Transmitter tab shows a NaN (Not a Number) warning when the given parameter is currently in a failing state. To further investigate and resolve the issue, use Field Tools, the AMS Device Configurator, or a 475 hand-held.
Revised October 2021 Troubleshooting 4-3
IEC62591 Wireless Interface Instruction Manual (for ROC800-Series and FloBoss 107)
Figure 4-1. NaN Warning in Transmitter screen
When NaN is reported, the RTU supports a failsafe operation defined by the user (Retain Last Value, Use Failsafe Value).
Figure 4-2. User-defined Failsafe Operation
4.3.2 Stale / Communication Failure
If the RTU reports a Stale or Communication Failure status in the Communication Status field, interrogate the transmitter using
475/AMS/Field Tools. The location of the transmitter’s network diagnostics can be found the transmitter’s manual.
Additionally, if the RTU reports a Stale status, assess the physical layout of the network. The Stale status can be triggered if there is any kind of physical anomaly in the network (tanker trucks between transmitter and RTU, transmitter between the end device and the RTU is powered down, etc.).
The RTU supports gathering Diagnostic Logs of the wireless network. You can extract these logs and send them to Technical Support for further analysis of the network issue.
