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

HART modem (or you can use a hand-held configuration device
such as the Emerson 375 or 475 Field Communicator). During this
step you individually add network information (Network ID, Join
Key, and long tag name) to the field-based wireless device.

2. Use ROCLINK 800 to configure the network by commissioning the

device as a working part of the network.

Note: The commissioning process assumes that you have already

placed and powered up several WirelessHART devices in the
field.

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.

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,

00809-0100-4075

 Emerson™ Wireless 775 THUM™ Adapter Quick Installation

Guide, 00825-0100-4075

The Quick Installation Guide is packed in the box with the THUM; the
Reference Manual is available through the Emerson website
(www.Emerson.com).
