SMV 3000 Transmitter User’s Manual 1/99150
A.2 Description
Definition
PM/APM/HPM SMV 3000 Integration is a term used to describe the
coupling of an SMV 3000 Smart Multivariable Transmitter to a
TDC 3000
X
Process Manager (PM), Advanced Process Manager (APM),
or High Performance Process Manager (HPM) through a digital
communications link.
This integration lets operators access SMV 3000 operation and
configuration data through Universal Station (US) displays as well as the
Smartline Configuration Toolkit (SCT 3000) and the Smart Field
Communicator (SFC) (not recommended) .
Communications Link
The communications link consists of the standard two wire output used for
4 to 20 milliampere transmission in common analog measurement
operations. It is transformed into the path for digital data exchange when
the SMV 3000 transmitter is configured for DE mode operation. In the DE
mode, the transmitter continuously broadcasts data in a 6-byte format as
defined through configuration. The 6-byte format is the only selection for
SMV 3000 communications. See Section 3.2 in the PM/APM Smartline
Transmitter Integration Manual for DE format details.
Each link connects an SMV 3000 through a Field Termination Assembly
(FTA) to a Smart Transmitter Interface MultiVariable(STIMV)
Input/Output Processor (IOP) in a Process Manager or an Advanced
Process Manager. Each STIMV IOP handles up to 16 inputs (or points)
from Smartline transmitters operating in the DE mode. Note that the
STIMV IOP is also referred to as the Smart Transmitter Interface Module
(STIM).
Compatibility
The PM/APM/HPM SMV 3000 Integration is compatible with
TDC 3000
X
control systems that have software release R230 or above and
are equipped with the multivariable transmitter versions of the STIM
model number
MU-PSTX03.
