10.4.4 Configuring bursts using the WirelessHART OPC server
By using OPC technology, the WirelessHART OPC server offers the possibility of aligning the
burst rate with the WirelessHART Adapter SWA70 in accordance with the application
requirements. This means that no other program, for example FieldCare, is required for the
configuration.
Prerequisites The following prerequisites are necessary for burst configuration:
• The WirelessHART OPC server has been installed.
• The WirelessHART OPC server has been configured with the program "WirelessHART
Fieldgate OPC Configurator". The configuration file was saved with the menu item "Save
Active".
• The OPC client is connected to the WirelessHART OPC server.
• The link to the OPC server has been established in the WirelessHART OPC client. The
device tree structure created in the "WirelessHART Fieldgate OPC Configurator" appears:
Burst configuration The burst configuration is described and illustrated on the basis of the OPC client "OPC Data
Spy". Designations and procedures may differ for other OPC clients.
