1 Device Management System [R 31] 1. What is InnovativeField Organizer? InnovativeField Organizer (hereinafter IFO) is a device management system for smart field devices that supports FOUNDATION fieldbus and HART Communication Protocol Features xcontributes to fast commissioning using improved methods of adjusting, checking, and testing field devices and control valves before startup/restart of plant. xonce plant operation has started, IFO monitors the status of field devices 24 hours a day, 365 days a year to detect any changes in the device at the earliest stage possible. xwith full-time connection HART communication, IFO monitors the status of operating devices with outstanding communication performance. xduring plant operation, control valves are continuously diagnosed online. xsupplies quantified indicators for control valves for conditionbased maintenance. xifo can be introduced without affecting DCS software simply. xthe status of devices is displayed in conformity with alarm standard 107 of the European user association NAMUR (hereinafter NAMUR NE107) and with Fieldbus Foundation FF Advantages xsupports quick and accurate plant startup by providing strong support for device connection checks, configuration/calibration, inspections, and loop tests before the plant starts. xonce the plant has started operation, the operation status of field devices is monitored 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. By detecting field device abnormalities at an early stage, IFO brings the opportunities to prevent unscheduled plant shutdown. xifo assists plant managers to make the transition from timebased maintenance to condition-based maintenance, allowing them to create appropriate maintenance plans based on the actual degree of deterioration of control valves as indicated by CV diagnostic data. 2. Function Overview 2.1. Display of Device Status The operation status of field devices is displayed in a tree format that corresponds to the management hierarchy or system configuration of the plant equipment. This format provides operators and maintenance staff with a device management screen that can be viewed easily, offering excellent convenience and device visibility. Figure 1. Device Management Screen In the device tree, IFO displays device status with symbols that comply with NAMUR NE107 (NAMUR, 2006). When an alert status is detected for a device, a message is recorded with a time stamp of the occurrence time and is saved as alert history information Symbols compliant with NAMUR NE107 Symbol Maintenance Required Out of Specification Check Function Failure 1

2 2.2. Adjustment and Setting Field devices made by manufacturers other than Azbil Corporation can be adjusted and set using the device type manager (DTM) or Device (DD/EDD) provided by the field device manufacturer Diagnostics Application In addition to the internal self-diagnostics executed by field devices, sophisticated device-specific diagnostic mechanisms and management functions specially made for the devices, which cannot be realized by a DTM only, are provided as optional plugin applications for IFO PLUG-IN Valstaff (Control Valve Diagnostic Maintenance Support Package) PLUG-IN Valstaff makes the major valve management functions of Valstaff, Azbil Corporation's control valve maintenance support system, available on IFO. In combination with Azbil s AVP Smart Valve Positioner, PLUG-IN Valstaff provides online CV diagnostics, positioner auto-setup, automated step response test, and valve signature test *. * Valve signature test can be executed combining with Smart Valve Positioner 700 series. Figure 2. DTM for Azbil Corporation's AVP302 For field devices that support FOUNDATION fieldbus, the device description (DD) or electronic device description (EDD) provided by the manufacturer can also be used to adjust the device settings Tag Commissioning IFO user can be easily and quickly checked whether exact field devices are connected or not. Then the report can be created Support for Loop Tests Quick trial run preparations, pre-startup preparations, and loop tests are supported. Conventional, troublesome three or five point checks using simulated signal input from a handheld terminal can be automated and accompanied by operation testing and report creation. This function is available for HART devices that support HART command Support for Interlock Test and Sequence Tests IFO provides a batch handling tool for outputting simulated signals. When an IFO user executes the DCS Interlock Test or Sequence Test, this tool can be used to instruct simulated signal output to many field devices in one operation. With conventional methods, many people would be required in order to input simulated signals to multiple field devices. This function is available for HART devices that support HART command Automated report generation of device parameters With this function the IFO user can generate a report on the configured parameters of all field devices connected to IFO in a single operation. With conventional methods, the user would have to back up the parameters of each field device in the plant using a handheld terminal. Then, the user would have to return to his/her desk and manually create a report on the device parameters. The contents of the generated report depend on the information which has been defined through the Device DTM or DD provided by device vendors. Figure 3. Stick-Slip Diagnostics 3. System Configuration 3.1. For Advanced-PS (TDCS3000) Field devices and IFO are connected to each other using HART communication. The input/output subsystems of PM-EX, PM100 (R15 and R20), and A-MC process controllers are configured in a base unit type in order to mount base unit type input/output modules that comply with HART communication. Input/output modules are connected to digital field devices by an analog signal (DC 4 20 ma) and are connected to the device management system by the device communication network (Ethernet).

When HART communication is used, the input/output subsystems of DOPC IV, DOPC III, DOPC II, DOPC, and HC process controllers are configured in a base unit type in order to mount base unit type input/output modules that comply with HART communication. Input/output modules are connected to digital field devices by an analog signal (DC 4 20 ma) and are connected to the device management system by the device communication network (Ethernet). When FOUNDATION fieldbus is used, a FOUNDATION fieldbuscompatible process controller (DOFC) is used to realize high-speed communications with IFO IFO system configuration which is independent from DCS IFO can be configured independent from DCS by using HNU (HART Network Unit). In this case, IFO can be connected HART devices only. HNU is HART communication interface which can connect HART devices simultaneously full-time.

5 About icons for safety precautions The safety precautions described in this document are indicated by the following icons. WARNING Warnings are indicated when mishandling this product might result in death or serious injury. CAUTION Cautions are indicated when mishandling this product might result in minor injury to the user, or only physical damage to the product. Example The indicated action is prohibited. Be sure to follow the indicated instructions. Safety precautions CAUTION Back up data and check for viruses regularly. Failure to do so may result in corrupted data or program malfunction. Do not install any anti-virus software into this PC. Check for viruses remotely from another PC. When using the loop check tool, exit these other tools first. Vendor DTM Device PLUG-IN Valstaff Device Watcher The loop check tool may operate in unexpected ways. Before executing an AI check, stop programs such as control programs and interlock programs. Failure to do so may change the input value for the DCS, resulting in an unexpected operation. Before executing an AO check, stop programs such as control programs and interlock programs. Also stop programs in the case of a DCS that is not made by Azbil Corporation. Otherwise, since an input value is written to the DCS, an unexpected operation may occur. 5
