2.3 Smart Device Setup
Prior to connecting smart devices to the Advant OCS, you must initially configure them using
an external device such as a PC-based configuration package (not supplied with the Smart
Device Interface) or a hand-held monitor like the ones shown in Figure 2-13 and 2-2 (Kent-
Taylor KHT1 and Rosemount Model 268).
During initial configuration, you must specify the unique tag name and transmitter polling
address for each smart device you want to connect to the Advant OCS. The tag name is used
when establishing initial communication with a smart device to obtain its unique identifier. The
transmitter polling address you specify for each smart device should be 0 (zero), allowing for
the communication of both analog and digital signals by the smart device. If you specify an
address other than 0, the analog signal is not generated with the digital signal. See the
documentation for the PC-based configuration package or hand-held monitor you are using for
instructions on how to configure smart devices.
NOTE
Hand-held monitors can later be used to tune smart devices in the field, however,
any tuning changes made with the hand-held monitor are not logged by the
Advant OCS.
