A Quick and Easy Way To Connect To F Fieldbus Using Emerson's USB Fieldbus Interface

The document describes Emerson's USB Fieldbus Interface, which allows a standard PC or laptop to connect to a FOUNDATION fieldbus segment. It was originally developed internally by Rosemount but is now being commercialized by Emerson. The interface provides power to the segment, includes two fieldbus terminators, and indicates communication and power status. It works with AMS Device Manager software to access fieldbus devices and their data. The interface, cable, manual, and utility software allow basic commissioning and monitoring of devices connected to the segment from a laptop.
