500 mV (500 Ω load, typical)
200 Ω load — 150 mV < signal < 250 mV
Carrier stop time < 10 bit time
Device connection type: DC-isolated bus device
Impedance level type: High Impedance device
Data link type: Primary or Secondary Master (configurable)
Field multi-drop support: available on request
For additional, more detailed HART-related specifications, please refer to the HART FSK Physical Layer
Specification Rev.8.0 available from the HART Communication Foundation (HCF_SPEC-54), which the Mux 2700
module is generally compliant with.
Notes :
• To minimise input capacitors size and to get an higher output signal level, the Hart signal transmit section is based
on a current generation technique. For this reasons, the output signal level is proportional to the external load,
which should not exceed 500 Ω to avoid possible cross-talk or saturation problems.
• The specified transmit-signal amplitude is a DC value measured at the centre of a waveform semi-period.
• To maximise allowed cable length and to avoid noise problems, you should avoid to connect to the MUX HART
low impedence devices < 250 Ω.
6.5 Serial port (RS-485)
Line type: RS-485, differential pair plus GND
Line speed: 9600 Baud or 19200 Baud
Line topology: multi-point, master-slave connection
Device type: slave (up to 31 slave Mux can connected to a single master)
Slave addressing range: 1 to 31 (0 reserved)
Protocol type: H-Port (HART based)
Master device: Maintenance Workstation (MW)
Warning !
A suitable RS-232 to RS-485 converter is required to connect the port with a standard PC (see Fig. 6).
As for RS-485 line detailed specifications, please refer to the relevant standard.
