can be set on the 8-position DIP switch labeled S2 which is accessible from the back panel of
the SHIM’s housing as shown in Figure 2-16.
The first and second switch positions (S2-1 and S2-2) are set to OFF, indicating parity of None.
The third through fifth switch positions (S2-3 through S2-5) are respectively set to ON, OFF,
and ON, indicating a baud rate of 9600. Switch positions S2-6 through S2-8 are always set to
OFF. Table 2-13 lists the switch position S2-1 through S2-5 settings and the parity and baud rate
they set.
2.3.1.5 Smart Device Connections
As indicated in Table 2-11, there are three contacts on SHIM terminal blocks XTB2 and XTB3
for each of the up to eight smart devices you can connect to a SHIM: Excitation, Signal+, and
Signal-. Excitation connections are protected by a shared 0.5 Amp Excitation fuse located on
the front panel, but there is no current limiting resistor or fuse per Excitation connection.
Therefore, if a SHIM powers a smart device loop, an external 50 mA fuse is required on the
corresponding SHIM Excitation to smart device Tx+ wire. Otherwise, a blown Excitation fuse
takes down all smart device loops powered by the SHIM without affecting serial communication
with the SHIM. Digital communication from smart devices is AC coupled to the SHIM on
corresponding Signal+ connections, and all Signal- connections to the SHIM are internally
shorted together to COM.
The physical connection between the screw terminations of a smart device and a SHIM is made
using a cable referred to as a HART Bus. See Section 5.4.1.2, Smart Device Removal and
Installation Procedures for specific installation and removal information.
NOTE
The maximum length of the HART Bus is 10,000 ft. (3,048 m) or is determined
using the following formula, whichever is less:
L = 65,000,000 / (R x C) - (C
f
+ 10,000) / C
where L is the length in feet or meters, R is the total loop resistance in ohms, C is
the cable capacitance in pF/ft. or pF/m, and C
f
is the sum of CN values of smart
