Additional HART-IP advanced diagnostics

PI Connector for HART-IP provides the following advanced diagnostics for the connection information of devices:

• Datasource Name

  Data source name as configured in the Data Source List.

• Device

  Address and Long Tag name of the connected device in the form Address(Long Tag).

• Status

  Connection status with the device.

• Connected Devices

  Number of connected devices, including the gateway.

• Scan Interval in Seconds

  The scan rate, in seconds, that the connector scans the connected devices for measurement data.

• Last Scan Event

  Time of the last successful scan for measurement data.

• Last Configuration Update

  Time of the last successful inventory of connected devices. A value of 12/31/1969 19:00:00.000 means that the connector has not been able to connect to the gateway and read the configuration.

• Configuration Check Interval in Minutes

  The scan rate, in minutes, that the connector checks for configuration changes on connected devices.

• Battery Life Check Interval In Days

  The scan rate, in days, that the connector reads the battery life of each connected battery-operated device. This check is best-effort; some devices may not respond to a requests for battery life.

• Last Battery Life Check

  Time of the last attempt to read for battery life. A value of 12/31/1969 19:00:00.000 means that the connector has not attempted to read battery life from the connected gateway sub-devices; which can occur if the sub-devices are not battery operated (HART 5/6 as well as some adapter devices) or if the discovery operation did not detect any battery operated devices on the gateway.
