Advanced Diagnostic Field Communicator

Emerson’s new 475 Field Communicator extends beyond device configuration functionality to provide advanced device diagnostic and troubleshooting capabilities in the field and on the bench so users can work more efficiently. Quick boot-up and fast operating time mean that jobs can be performed quickly and easily, while longer battery life ensures days — not hours — of operation. The intrinsically safe 475 Field Communicator supports HART, WirelessHART, and Foundaton Fieldbus devices. The unit features Bluetooth communications and a full-color graphical user interface that displays trend charts, gauges, and graphics available in device descriptions. Up to 1,000 device configurations can be stored or transmitted wirelessly between the communicator and PC for printing and storage. (www.emersonprocess.com)
