8.2 Integration into the FOUNDATION Fieldbus network
• For more in-depth information on integrating the device into the FF system, see the
description for the configuration software used.
• When integrating the field devices into the FF system, make sure you are using the
right files. You can read out the required version by means of the Device Revision/
DEV_REV and DD Revision/ DD_REV parameters in the Resource Block.
The device is integrated into the FF network as follows:
1. Start the FF configuration program.
2. Download the Cff and device description files (*.ffo, *.sym (for format 4) *ff5, *sy5 (for
format 5) to the system.
3. Configure the interface.
4. Configure the device for the measuring task and for the FF system.
8.3 Device identification and addressing
FOUNDATION Fieldbus identifies the device using its ID code (Device ID) and automatically
assigns it a suitable field address. The identity code cannot be changed. The device appears in
the network display once you have started the FF configuration program and integrated the
device into the network. The blocks available are displayed under the device name.
If the device description has not yet been loaded, the blocks report "Unknown" or "(UNK)".
