USB-HART Modem with 24VDC and Loop Resistor

Model：WS232UP

※ Introduction
The WS232UP USB-HART Modem provides a
complete and flexible PC communication link to
HART networks and power kit and loop resistor,
for commissioning, servicing, calibrating, or
acquiring data from any HART instrument or
transmitter.
WS232UP developed based on BELL202
modem standard, this external interface is
rugged and compact and ideal choice for field
service, commissioning, engineering, training,
table top shows, lunch and learns and demo
cases.
•Fully HART compliant for communication with any HART instrument and error-free slave testing
•DC-DC isolation power draws from USB port and needs no external power supply
•Three modes: 1) 24VDC/270Ω. 2) Normal. 3) 270Ω. The mode is easily slide-switch selected so
you’ll always have a power supply or loop resistor with you
•Easy installation and use, this modem can power all 2-wire HART devices-independent of supplier
•Rugged aluminium alloy case gives you industrial-grade reliability in a small package
•Free HART application software for you to configure your HART device

※ Application
1. Install the USB driver software. You can update or download this driver anytime from internet；
2. Plug the USB cable to your PC, the yellow “POWER” LED will illuminate；

3. Slide-switch to select operating mode, connect the test cable and HART device according to the
following pictures：
[24VDC/270Ω]：
The red “24VDC” LED will illuminate. This mode can power all 2-wire HART device，internal loop
resistor is available. Does not need external power and loop resistor.

[Normal]：
The red “24VDC” LED will not illuminate. This mode is very typical and classical for HART MODEM,
need external power and loop resistor 250Ω~1000Ω.

[270Ω]：
The red “24VDC” LED will not illuminate. This mode need external power, does not need loop resistor.

4. Run the HART application software to configure your HART device. The red and blue bi-color “Tx/Rx”
LED will blink alternately when the communication is good between PC and HART device( Tx-RED，
Rx-Blue).
5. If you finish your operating, Please close your HART software, then pull out the USB cable and
disconnect the test cable.
