Preferred Integration
Manufacturers often prefer to select components from different suppliers so they can achieve the best control system with the best
measurement components. This approach can pose risks because integration of components from different sources is often problematic.
There are hundreds of different components in a typical plant: controllers, remote I/O, electrical drives, safety equipment, and sensors. Each
component must be integrated, configured, and optimized during startup and operation.

Rockwell Automation and Endress+Hauser have strengthened their strategic alliance to provide complete process automation solutions that
include instrumentation, software, and control systems. Rockwell Automation and Endress+Hauser continuously develop pre-engineered,
pre-tested, supported, and maintained integrated solutions for plant-wide diagnostics and lifecycle management for seamless operation
between products from both companies. This preferred integration provides you with the following:
•Reduced integration costs throughout engineering, commissioning, and start-up
•Optimized plant availability and output
•Increased product quality and consistency
•Optimized traceability to meet regulatory demands
•Predictive maintenance through intelligent instruments
Integration tools from both companies include Add-on Profiles (AOPs) and process objects, that include Add-On Instructions and faceplates.
This document helps you select the Endress+Hauser instruments to integrate with a Rockwell Automation control system.

See Integration Components
These files are necessary to configure the control hardware and instrumentation in the controller program.
3.Use the Add-On Instructions in the Process Object Library to develop the application.
See Integration Components
4.Use the faceplates and graphical files to create an operator interface to monitor the application.
See Integration Components
5.Use FDT/DTM technology to get access to the process device configuration. See Integration Components and Software Options

Add-on Profile (AOP)
Add-On Instruction
(AOI)
Faceplate
An AOP file is the device description that integrates modules and
devices into the Rockwell Automation Studio 5000 environment. An AOP
file integrates configuration parameters and tag data into the controller
program. This premier integration eliminates the need for you to map
data or create tag aliases.
Add-On Instructions are reusable code objects that contain
encapsulated logic. The objects let you create your own instruction set
for programming logic to supplement the instruction set that is native
to the controller. An Add-On Instruction is defined once in each
controller project, and can be instantiated multiple times in your
application code.
A faceplate is a graphical representation on an operator workstation of
a specific function. Plant operators and engineers use the faceplates to
monitor device performance, identify faults, and take corrective action.
The faceplates create a flow of information between key components of
the manufacturing process — from the Endress+Hauser
instrumentation to an enterprise business system.

An EDS file is the device description that integrates EtherNet/IP
modules and instrumentation into the Rockwell Automation Studio 5000
environment.
A Communication DTM is the first DTM to be activation upon
communication setup in an FDT/FRAME system. This DTM standardizes
the communication channel to the corresponding communication
operations of the mapped network protocol. This DTM acts as the
standardized device driver for one or multiple protocols.
Gateway DTMs let communication transition between the
communications paths of different protocols in the FDT architecture.
Gateway DTMs act as a link between the CommDTM and the device.
A Device Type Manager™ (FDT/DTM™) is a software component for an
intelligent device or communication component within a digital
network. It contains all of the parameters, functions, user interfaces,
and other items that represent the devices features. The user interface
to the DTM is supplied by the manufacturer.

Process Device Configuration
Use FDT® Technology to configure, maintain, and monitor your smart field devices. Everything you need is in an FDT/DTM compatible frame
application with the appropriate Communication, Gateway and device DTMs. Together an FDT Frame and a DTM, or a collection of DTMs,
create an FDT-enabled application, which can be scaled from a single device to tens of thousands of devices controlled by a single FRAME
throughout the automation system.
Process Device Integration
Most PlantPAx device integrations require that you instantiate one Add-On module Profile (AOP) and two Add-On Instructions (AOI)
per field device:
•Module or Device-specific Add-On module Profile for Studio 5000 software to create the item in the I/O Configuration list, required
for device tags
•Device-specific Add-On Instruction that gathers the required device tags and prepares the data for use
•Generic object that uses the device data, along with custom-made device diagnostic and unit tables, to enable visibility with the

The Highway Addressable Remote Transducer (HART) protocol supports industrial process measurement and control applications. The HART
protocol combines analog and digital communication in both wired and wireless architectures. The analog signal uses a range of
4.0…20.0 mA DC, and the digital communication signal is superimposed on the analog signal. Additional information can be found in
