Device configuration road map
1993 1994
2002
• 1993 HART communication foundation formed, EDDL standardised
• 1994 FF and PNO adopted EDDL (independently and differently)
• 2002 FF, HCF, PNO enhance EDDL and add diagnostics – IEC 61804-2
• 2003 FDT group formed (informal cooperation)
• 2004 EDDL Cooperation team founded – HCF, FF, PI + OPC Foundation
• 2005 FDT Group founded as an International Association
• 2007 FDI Standardisation project launched
• 2011 FDI cooperation formed with FDT, FF, HCF, PI, OPC Foundation 2003
2003/4
2005
2007
2011
2016+

Why start this cooperation?
• Process automation end users ask for a single solution
• Current FDT and EDDL technologies have partial overlap causing a competitive situation.
• Current situation is confusing because of conflicting messages
• Suppliers face expensive development
• Most suppliers are member of both ECT organisation and FDT Group. They must invest in parallel
to support both technologies.
(2007)
Slide 7 Phil Waterworth
03/29/2017
Common objectives
• Applicable to any field device communication technology
• Applicable for all network topologies.
• Backward compatibility with existing EDDL based device descriptions and DTM’s.
• Open specification that will become an international standard.
• Platform and operating system independent.
(2007)
Slide 8 Phil Waterworth

End user benefits
• Single and consistent solution irrespective of supplier to achieve interoperability.
• Compatibility with installed base.
• Shared strategy and development by all suppliers ensures integration of all devices.
• Clear technology direction shared by all suppliers ends uncertainties.
(2007)
Slide 9 Phil Waterworth
03/29/2017
EDDL based FDI hosts will support existing EDD’s
• FDI Host
• New FDI device packages are
imported
• Existing EDD files can be
imported
Slide 11 Phil Waterworth
03/29/2017
FDT2 based FDI hosts will support existing DTM’s
• FDT2 Host
• New FDI device packages are
imported using an FDI DTM
• Existing DTM’s files continue to
be used
• Existing EDD files can be
imported using an interpreter
DTM
Slide 12 Phil Waterworth

Field Device Tool (FDT) platforms
• What are they – how do they work?
Slide 13 Phil Waterworth
03/29/2017
The FDT Group
• The FDT Group formed in 2005
• open
• independent
• non-profit
• association of 82 international companies
• Owner of the FDT Technology
• Responsible for maintenance, further development, and promotion
of FDT Technology
• Responsible for certification and compliance testing of FDT products
• Dedicated to establishing and maintaining FDT Technology as an
international standard with broad acceptance within the automation
industry
• Open to all companies that wish to participate www.fdtgroup.org
Slide 14 Phil Waterworth

What is FDT/DTM?
• FDT / DTM • FDT = Field Device Tool (frame application)
• Follows a published standard specification
• DTM = Device Type Manager (device driver) • Compatible with an FDT frame application
• Open standardised technology
independent of device or system supplier
• Independent of device type
sensor, actuator, remote I/O, drives, etc.
• Full support of installed base
• Independent of communication protocol
Ethernet, HART, PROFIBUS, Foundation Fieldbus, etc.
• Vertical integration by nested communication
