24 HONEYWELL September 19, 2012
The Original Customer Needs…
• Users want to use best-in-class devices, generally from multiple vendors.
• Most vendor’s devices became more powerful (and complex) with diagnostic features and functions built-in.
• Users need asset performance management to help: - improve uptime,
- better utilize staff
- optimize field device utilization
25 HONEYWELL September 19, 2012
History Lesson – How did we get here?
• October 2002 - The DD Cooperation Project was launched.
- Original Members: • Honeywell, ABB, Emerson Process Management, Endress+Hauser,
FlowServe, Invensys, Siemens and Yokogawa.
- Goal was to extend the concept of interoperability into the HMI and diagnostic data areas.
- DDs have been used for more than 10 years but lacked the ability to work with more complex capabilities like valve signatures, sensor calibration curves and data storage management.
26 HONEYWELL September 19, 2012
• 1998 - First FDT/DTM created
• January 2003 - FDT/DTM was standardized by the FDT Joint Interest Group
• ABB, Endress+Hauser, Invensys, Siemens and Metso Automation • Membership now exceeds 31 members
• April 2003 - FDT Joint Interest Group
• ABB, Endress+Hauser, Invensys, Siemens, Metso
• April 2007 - FDT joined ECT as an official member
• ECT = FF, HCF and OPC Foundation
- FDT and EDDL technologies will eventually merge.
History Lesson – How did we get here?
27 HONEYWELL September 19, 2012
Definitions
• FDT/DTM - Provides an open framework for field device maintenance and
configuration software.
- Works with any field bus application.
• FDT
- Field Device Tool • A standardized software interface description that defines the co-
operation between device management plug-ins (DTMs) and an FDT container.
• DTM
- Device Type Manager • A DTM is a device maintenance and diagnostic application that plug’s
into a host system’s engineering and asset management system.
28 HONEYWELL September 19, 2012
FDT Structure
• FDT Defines: - A set of software component interfaces
- Responsibilities between components
- Components: frame application, device drivers and communication drivers
• An FDT solution consist of three major components: - The “frame application” that provides the common container and
user interface function
- The “device software” that for each instrument that appears as a window pane within the frame
- The “communications software” that passes the communications through the system to the device
29 HONEYWELL September 19, 2012
How Does It Fit Together?

• Network Configuration
• Navigation
• User Management
• DTM Management
• Data Management

(E.g. FF, HART, PROFIBUS)
Plant Assets Sensors, Actuators, Drives, Valves, etc.
30 HONEYWELL September 19, 2012
Characteristics of a DTM
• Similar to a “printer driver” on the office world
• Are available from each device manufacturer
• Provides graphical support for operation
• Allows off-line and on-line configuration parameter
adjustment(s)
• Supports the instrument’s diagnostic options
• Can provide documentation of the instrument settings
• Can provide “on-line” help
31 HONEYWELL September 19, 2012
What to look for…
• FDT-JIG (Joint Interest Group) allows for both self-certification and certification through their own group. - There are two different logos established for this purpose:
– Honeywell’s DTMs are self certified
32 HONEYWELL September 19, 2012
FDT Communication Protocol Options
• FDT is specified for many communication protocols used in process and factory automation:
FOUNDATION FieldbusTM
HART®
Profibus® (DP & PA) and Profinet®
CIP (DeviceNetTM and ControlNetTM)
AS-Interface
Modbus®
Interbus

Frame Application
• The FDT/DTM solution requires a base “frame application” - There are several ways to obtain one:
•Develop one specific for your system
•Honeywell “FDM (Field Device Manager)”
•Endress+Hauser “FieldCare”
•Omron “One Tool”
•ABB “Engineer IT”
•Others (as available)
•Utilize an available “third-party” frame application
•PACTware (free from any PACTware Consortium member website)
•Others (as available)
36 HONEYWELL September 19, 2012
What is PACTware?
• PACTware - Process Automation Configuration Tool
- An FDT frame application known as an open platform for system-wide
instrument management.
- Uses the FDT-to-DTM interface for instrument adjustment, configuration, set-up, diagnostics and an asset management tool.
- Manufacturer independent and works with all instruments.
- Free software available from any PACTware Consortium member’s web-site. Start with either of these web-sites for additional information.
www.fdt-jig.org or www.pactware.com

DTM Installation
• Installing a DTM is normally simple! - Download the Honeywell DTM zip file from the
website
- Extract files and run “Setup.exe”
• For DTMs from other vendors, please use the instructions provided from their respective web-sites for downloading and installation.
40 HONEYWELL September 19, 2012

44 HONEYWELL September 19, 2012
Device Information
• The “Device Information” folder under “Detailed Set-up” allows for the review of many previously configured parameters.
• Changes can be made to any “non-grayed” block.
45 HONEYWELL September 19, 2012
Device Set-up
• The “Device Set-up” folder has sub-set folders grouped to easily manage the device’s configuration process.
• Each folder displays information grouped together for ease-of-use.
46 HONEYWELL September 19, 2012
Help is at YOUR Fingertips…
•Help information is available from several locations on the main menus:
- The “bookmark” takes you to the selected Honeywell device manual.
- The “?” takes you to the On-Line DTM User’s Manual.
This “Help” button takes you to the Help Menu for PACTware.
47 HONEYWELL September 19, 2012
Read the Manual!!!
• Should “help” be required during any part of the configuration process, a simple keystroke opens an on-line DTM User Manual.
• Simply click on the “section header” and you will be taken to that chapter in the manual.
48 HONEYWELL September 19, 2012
Status Indication Made Easy!
• Under the “Diagnosis” folder sits several sub-folders that allow the user to view the various device status pages.
• Check marks indicate the presence of a fault or any change to the configuration that has been made.
49 HONEYWELL September 19, 2012
In a nutshell…
• The use of a DTM application allows for the complete configuration of the selected instrument.
• It requires no other interface software or device (such as a hand-held communicator) in order to configure or diagnose an instrument.
• Any certified “frame application” can configure any vendor’s instrument by using that vendor’s DTM software.
• Simply select the correct vendor’s DTM and establish contact with the device and you are ready to go.
