1. Safety instructions
1.1. Prerequisites for the safe handling of the product
Standards/directives The end user or the contractor must ensure that all legal requirements, directives,
guidelines, national regulations and recommendations with respect to assembly,
electrical connection, commissioning and operation are met at the place of installation.
They include among others standards and directives such as IEC 60079 “Explosive
atmospheres".
● Part 14: Electrical installations design, selection and erection.
● Part 17: Electrical installations inspection and maintenance.
Safety instructions/
All personnel working with this device must be familiar with the safety and warning
warnings
instructions in this manual and observe the instructions given. Safety instructions
and warning signs on the device must be observed to avoid personal injury or property
damage.
Qualification of staff Assembly, electrical connection, commissioning, operation, and maintenance must
be carried out by suitably qualified personnel authorised by the end user or contractor
of the plant only.
Prior to working on this product, the staff must have thoroughly read and understood
these instructions and, furthermore, know and observe officially recognised rules
regarding occupational health and safety.
Work performed in potentially explosive atmospheres is subject to special regulations
which have to be observed. The end user or contractor of the plant is responsible
for respect and control of these regulations, standards, and laws.
Electrostatic charging Highly efficient charge generating processes (processes more efficient than manual
friction) on the device surface must be excluded at any time, since they will lead to
propagating brush discharges and therefore to ignition of a potentially explosive
atmosphere.
This also applies to fireproof coatings or covers available as an option.
Ignition dangers Gearboxes were subjected to an ignition hazard assessment in compliance with the
currently applicable standard according to ISO 80079-36/ -37. Hot surfaces,
mechanically generated sparks as well as static electricity and stray electric currents
were identified and assessed as major potential ignition sources. Protective measures
to prevent the likelihood that ignition sources arise were applied to the gearboxes.
This includes in particular lubrication of the gearbox, the IP protection codes and the
warnings and notes contained in these operation instructions.
Commissioning Prior to commissioning, imperatively check that all settings meet the requirements
of the application. Incorrect settings might present a danger to the application, e.g.
cause damage to the valve or the installation. The manufacturer will not be held
liable for any consequential damage. Such risk lies entirely with the user.

AC(V) 01.2/AC(V)ExC 01.2 HART General information on HART
HART offers a wide range of services and functions, with particular advantages when
combined with smart field devices:
● Point-to-point wiring with cable lengths up to 3,000 m
● Multidrop topology (line topology) available as an option (number of participants
typically ≤ 8).
● Using known conventional 4 – 20 mA infrastructure for
- Remote access to inaccessible devices.
- Device configuration for field device commissioning.
- Device and fault diagnostics during active operation.
- Asset Management for field devices.
- Transmission of additional process values from and to the field device.
- Transmission of Primary Variable (PV) as precise digital process value
for adjustment/validation with the 4 – 20 mA signal.
● Device integration within DCS using standardised technologies (e.g. EDD)
● Application facilities in explosive atmospheres
● Standardised and simple commissioning procedures (loop test and signal cal-
ibration)
Use and benefits for actuators

Actuator controls
General information on HART AC(V) 01.2/AC(V)ExC 01.2 HART
The HART interface superimposes and transmits all actuator parameters adjustable
and legible via local controls (e.g. for commissioning, diagnostics, status signals) as
digital instruction (command = write parameter, request = read parameter) to an
analogue input or output.
Furthermore, digital control commands (e.g. OPEN, STOP and EMERGENCY) can
be transmitted for actuator control. Within the device, these HART commands are
reconverted into binary control commands. In turn and on instruction, the actuator
sends the status of its own binary signal outputs, the actual value/setpoint at analogue
inputs/outputs as well as the acknowledgements on parameter changes as digital
telegram via the integral HART modem to the DCS or PLC.
2.3. Communication technology
In HART applications, distinction is made between the DCS/PLC (master) and the
field device (slave). For communication between DCS/PLC and field devices, HART
uses a half-duplex system for request-response communication. Depending on the
8

AC(V) 01.2/AC(V)ExC 01.2 HART General information on HART
actual process data length, complete date exchange whereby the master sends an
instruction telegram and the slave issues responses takes up to 0.5 seconds assuming
a transmission speed/baud rate of 1,200 bit/s. For point-to-point configuration, 2 to
3 telegrams can be exchanged. An average transmission time of 13 ms is accounted
for each process byte.
The HART protocol supports two hosts (masters), a primary master is generally a
distributed control system, the secondary master is typically a handheld terminal or
a laptop with HART modem for field configuration. Both hosts can act simultaneously.
After each transaction, representing the data exchange between host and field device,
one of the two masters can take over communication within a fixed and assigned
time window.
Figure 4: HART data transaction with request and response telegram
HART devices can operate in various network configurations. The most frequent
configuration is point-to-point connection. For this application, the master is only
connected to one HART field device.
Point-to-point connection
HART data is modulated onto the 4 – 20 mA signal via HART modem. Generally,
the controllers (masters) send and receive a modulated voltage signal where the
field devices (slaves) send their messages via superimposed currents. HART current
signals are converted and inverted into the required voltage signals by a resistor
available within the current loop (internal resistance of power supply, line resistance,
9
Actuator controls
General information on HART AC(V) 01.2/AC(V)ExC 01.2 HART
input resistance of actuator, etc.). The total resistance of the current loop including
the cable resistance must amount to minimum 230 Ω and maximum 1,100 Ω . In
case the available resistance of the current loop is too low, a so-called communication
resistor must be integrated in series. Generally, communication resistors are rated
at approx. 250 Ω.
Device categories AC .2 actuator controls distinguish two HART variants, the device categories
“Actuator” and “Current Output”. When ordering AC .2 actuator controls, the type of
HART communication channel must be specified, either 4 – 20 mA input or 4 – 20
mA output.
When using AC . 2 device category “Actuator”, no further communication resistor is
required within the current loop for communication with the controller, since the HART
current input already offers a resistance of 250 Ω (low impedance).
Figure 6: Example wiring of HART device category “Actuator”
Example wiring of HART device category “Current Output”. The actuator issues the
actual value via the 4 – 20 mA analogue signal, the signal power supply is contained
within the actuator.
Figure 7: Example wiring of HART device category “Current Output”
The actuator current output has a high internal impedance of approx. 40 kΩ (high
impedance). When using this concept and depending on the input impedance of the
used current input, an additional communication resistor might be required.
HART multidrop
HART allows for implementation of rarely used line topologies, comparable to the
classical fieldbus applications, called multidrop. For this operation mode, a so-called
polling address must be assigned to every single of maximum 8 HART devices,
arranged in parallel, preferably within the range of 1 – 15. This operation mode does
not allow for analogue signal transmission. Communication is only digital and
sequential to every single end device.
The HART multidrop mode is provided for AC .2 actuator controls in variant “Current
Output” (high impedance).

Table 1:
Name Number of bytes Purpose
Preamble 5 – 20 Synchronising the data stream
Delimiter 1 Indicates the master number
Address 1–5 Defines slave, master and starts burst mode
Expansion Bytes 0–3 Reserved for protocol extensions (not used)
Command 1 Figure value for the command to be executed
Byte Count 1 Indicates the data field size
Status Data Master (0) Communication and device status
Slave (2)
Data 0 – 253 Data to be transmitted
Check Byte 1 Checksum of all bytes, from the start byte to the data bytes
Preamble For synchronising all participants, a HART telegram starts with an FF character
sequence counting a typical length of 5 bytes. The preamble is followed by the actual
HART message, starting with a delimiter.
Delimiter The delimiter or the start byte defines the type of message (who is the sender), the
position of the command byte counts as well as the addressing type used for the
message (short or long address).
Address HART distinguishes two addressing types, short address (polling address) and long
address (unique ID). The first byte always contains the master number, primary
master = 1, secondary master = 0. Besides commands 0 and 11 (identification of
participants), all HART telegrams use the long addressing via unique ID of the device.
Command This is a 1 byte figure to indicate which command is to be executed.
Byte Count Indicates the number of data bytes
Data This field is used to send data. All response telegrams contain minimum two status
bytes.
Check sum The check sum is calculated on the basis of XOR of all bytes. Starting with the start
byte and ending with the last data field byte.
3.3. Bus address (slave address)
Each HART device has an own globally unique long address, also called Unique
ID. For unique identification/establishment of connection, a short address is assigned
to each HART device called Polling address. For devices with polling address 0,
the analogue 4 – 20 mA signalisation is active. For devices >0, only digital
communication is possible.
At initial contact, the connected HART devices and their short addresses are scanned
and identified. For this, the host system subsequently sends the identification
command 0 (Read Unique Identifier) to a previously defined address area of e.g. 0
– 15. Connected devices respond with their unique ID.
The short address 0 is assigned to HART devices within point-to-point installations.
The short address configuration for HART devices in multidrop installation are
between 1 and 63. Polling address 63 is reserved for WirelessHART adapters and
I/O systems. However, WirelessHART adapters are also often preconfigured to
address 15.
Any communication between master and slave is performed after first identification
on the basis of the long unique ID.
Composition of the Unique ID = "Expanded Device Type" + "Device Identifier"
unique ID Expanded device type M1261 = HART device type or identification number (refer to
FCG tables)

Commissioning AC(V) 01.2/AC(V)ExC 01.2 HART
Actuator controls (“Actuator” device category) measures the applied analogue input
current within the range of 0 mA to 24 mA and supplies the value as “Raw_AI” process
data (raw value) for diagnostics. A trimmed (corrected) signal is generated from the
measured raw value within the range of 0 mA and 24 mA and provided as “PVAI”
process data for diagnostics.
A current trim is required to match the actuator current input with the controls (e.g.
PLC) or I/O module output. If controls issue a setpoint current of 4.0 mA and the
actuator indicates 4.2 mA, the current trim is used to adapt this input value to 4.0
mA.
Figure 12: Schematic representation of “Actuator” analogue input current adjustment
This principle is inverted for an actuator current output and a controls input (PLC).
If the actuator sets a current value of 4.0 mA, controls (PLC) however indicate 4.2
mA, the actuator current output is adapted to 4.2 mA by the current trim.
Figure 13: Schematic representation of the analogue output current adjustment
The analogue loop current (input or output current) is transformed via range adaptation
to the dynamic process variable PV and SV specifically the setpoint or actual position
in %.
The following limit values are required for adapting the 4 – 20 mA loop current to the
value range of the dynamic variable:
● Lower Range Value --> process value in % for loop current of 4 mA
● Upper Range Value --> process value in % for loop current of 20 mA
These values can be configured via the HART interface using commands 35 – 37
and 135 – 137, refer to HART specification.
The values can be set via the display in the menu for Device configurationM0053 >
HARTM1242.
Setting procedure
LRV always represents the setpoint for 4 mA in %. URV represents the setpoint for
20 mA. It is possible to represent any input or output current range to any desired
process value (setting range/actual position).
The allowed value range is –250 % to 250 %

Example of inverse oper- Set LRV = 100 % (4 mA value), set URV = 0 % (20 mA value)
ation Example: Increasing the current resolution (current loupe) for a limited setting
range:
Current range 4 – 20 mA to be represented to setting range 20 % bis 60 %.
Set LRV = 20 % (4 mA value), set URV = 60 % (20 mA value)
Example: Representation of setting range to a limit current range, Split Range
Setting range 0 – 100 % is to be represented to 4 – 12 mA (0 to 50 % of 16 mA
current range).
Set LRV = 0 % (4 mA value), set URV = 200 % (20 mA value)
Setting range 0 – 100 % is to be represented to 12 – 20 mA (50 – 100 % of current
range)
Set LRV = -100 % (4 mA value), set URV = 100 % (20 mA value).

Actuator controls require approx. 20 seconds for powering up. During this time, the
device does not react to HART commands. The loop current is suspended during
power failure in case “Current Output” is activated. Simulation of device variables
by command 79 is also suspended in the event of power failure.
4.6.3.3. Reset
Command 42 (device reset) causes the device to reset its microprocessor. Procedure
is identical to normal power up.

The largest data field used is contained within the response to command 9 (reading
device variables with status): 71 bytes including both status bytes.
4.6.3.7. Non-volatile memory
An EEPROM is used to save the configuration parameters of the device. New data
is written to this memory immediately on executing a command. This ensures that
data is safeguarded even if the power is switched off.
4.6.3.8. Modes
Fixed Current Mode is available. Fixed Current Mode is activated, if the loop current
was fixed using command 40 (input/termination of Fixed Current Mode) or if the
device variable 0 “input loop current” was overwritten via command 79 (Write Device
Variable - to a fixed value) or if the Fixed Current Mode was deactivated via command
6 (Write Polling Address > 0). If the loop current is activated, the Fixed Current Mode
is automatically cleared or reset due to power failure. If the loop current is deactivated,
the Fixed Current Mode is maintained or reset after power failure.
For Device category > “Actuator”, the actuator can be controlled via loop current or
HART command 128. For “Current Output” connection type/device category, the
actuator can only be controlled via HART command 128. In addition, actuators
controls support alternative operation modes (e.g. via other interfaces).The alternative
operation mode is indicated in command 48 (Bytes Not Ready REMOTE 1 and Not

6.1. Troubleshooting
In case of problems with HART communication, the actuator controls provide
important information on troubleshooting via the display (menu DiagnosticsM0022).
The indication and diagnostic LEDs on the HART board can also be used as support.
Communication status Correct HART communication to actuator can be checked via local controls display
or via the AUMA CDT service software (using a PC or Laptop with Bluetooth)
Indication on display:
Diagnostics M0022
HART M1238
Communication status M1271
Channel 1 DataEx M1272
Channel 1 activity M1286
0 = communication not active, 1 = communication active during monitoring time.
STX counter M1289 = number of received telegrams
ACK counter M1290 = number of sent telegrams
Current loop monitoring It is possible to check whether the 4 – 20 mA current value of the respective HART
channel is within specification (3.8 to 20.5 mA according to NAMUR recommendation
NE 43).
