1.1 Safety message

WARNING!

Do not connect the USB Fieldbus Interface to a live segment (with an active

DCS Host and power supply attached) if the power indicator light on the

interface is amber in color. Doing so can disrupt communications and may

compromise automation safety.

2 USB Fieldbus Interface

Topics covered in this chapter:

•Overview

•Parts and function

•Power modes

2.1 Overview

The USB Fieldbus Interface enables two-way communication between a

computer and fieldbus devices. Its primary function is to allow the setup,

configuration, monitoring, and troubleshooting of fieldbus devices at any

valid FF address through a computer.

The interface is fully compatible with all FOUNDATION fieldbus (FF) devices

and is always configured as a "visitor."

It is particularly useful in these plant scenarios:

•Workbench setup and troubleshooting of fieldbus devices

•With a laptop in the field to configure, commission, decommission, set

device address, or troubleshoot fieldbus devices

The USB Fieldbus Interface comes with a USB cable, lead set, user's manual*,

and installation CD/DVD*. The user's manual and installation CD/DVD are not

included in the illustration.

Scenarios

Normal scenarios

Green Green The USB Fieldbus Interface is connected to an externally

powered segment and is able to communicate.

Amber Green The USB Fieldbus Interface is providing power to a fieldbus

segment and is able to communicate.

Other scenarios

Off Off

The USB Fieldbus Interface is not connected to a powered

computer.

-OR-

The USB Fieldbus Interface is connected to a computer but

the computer power is off.

-OR-

The USB FF HSE Server is not running on the connected

computer.

Green Off

The USB Fieldbus Interface is not connected to a powered

segment.

-OR-

The USB Fieldbus Interface is connected to a powered

segment with the wrong polarity.

Off Green The USB Fieldbus Interface is connected normally to a

powered segment but the USB FF HSE Server is not running.

Amber Red The USB Fieldbus Interface is providing power but a short

circuit has been detected on the field connection.

Amber Off

The USB Fieldbus Interface is providing power and

connected to an already powered fieldbus segment with

reverse polarity.

Amber Amber

The USB Fieldbus Interface is providing power to a fieldbus

segment and the load on that segment has exceeded its

limit.

User's Manual January 2019

2.3 Power modes

The USB Fieldbus Interface has two power modes:

•Mode 1 - The interface does not supply power to the connected fieldbus

device or segment. The fieldbus device or segment is powered by an

external source.

Mode 1 is the default.

•Mode 2 - The interface powers the connected fieldbus device or segment

and no external power is needed.

In Mode 2, it can provide current of up to 85 mA (typically sufficient for

three or four fieldbus devices on the same segment).

You can configure Mode 2 using the USB Fieldbus Interface Configuration

utility. For more information, see Section 4.3.

WARNING!

Choose only one power mode. Never attempt to use two power sources at

the same time. Doing so can disrupt communications and may compromise

automation safety.

3 Software installation and device setup

Topics covered in this chapter:

•System requirements

•Install the USB Fieldbus Interface Configuration utility

•Install the Communication DTM software

•Install the Emerson DTM Library

•Setup and connection

•Connect to a live fieldbus segment

Perform software installation and device setup in the following order:

1. Install the USB Fieldbus Interface Configuration utility.

This allows you to configure the USB Fieldbus Interface and connected

fieldbus devices.

2. Install the Communication DTM software.

This enables DTM support for connected fieldbus devices.

3. Install the Emerson DTM Library.

This allows you to use DTMs associated with Emerson devices through an

FDT Frame Application.

Note

Device DTMs are usually acquired from device suppliers. Contact your

device supplier if you have a non-Emerson device and install the

appropriate third-party DTM library.

4. Set up and configure connected fieldbus devices.
