Setting the ST100 for the HART Protocol Operation
Note:

If the ST100 was ordered as a 4-20 mA analog current output or a HART device, the factory will have configured the instrument for

HART operation, and it should not be necessary to do any instrument configuration.

The ST100 PC Configurator tool is used to select the communication protocol with instrument power ON. In normal operating conditions, connect the

PC with the configurator software to the ST100 USB port using FCI’s cable (P/N 022646).

To configure the ST100 for HART open the ST100 Configurator

. From the tree menu, on the left side select “Configuration”, and then select the

“Output” tab. In the Output tab select “Analog Output Board” and then select “4-20mA channel #1 as HART”. Verify the 4-20mA range values meet

the process requirements. Then press the “Send to Device” button to download the setting to the ST100 instrument.
