Operation
Current output Active or passive Passive only
The HART interface is a smart interface, in other words a communication signal superimposed on
the current output. All functions and parameters can be accessed via this interface.
The following HART features are supported:
• point-to-point connection
• multidrop (up to 15 HART devices)
The burst mode is not normally used. Further information about HART is available from the HART
Communication Foundation, of which Krohne is a member.
