What you will learn

Where HART is used in the process automation industry

Basic technical overview

How to create a physical point-to-point HART network

HART Commands and Data Frames

Software simulation of master/slave communication

Use of the popular PACTware software for HART communication

Why take this course?

HART stands for "highway addressable remote transducer", and is a protocol that is still heavily used in the process automation industry. HART is essential for the remote configuration, troubleshooting and maintenance of plant instrumentation and it's use yields many cost saving benefits.

This course has been designed with practicality in mind. At the end of this course, you will be able to use the HART protocol in a very hands-on way to configure, maintain and troubleshoot plant instrumentation. Essentially, you will have a new practical skill in the field of process automation and plant maintenance.

Specifically, in this course, you will learn:

- Where HART is used in the process automation industry.

- Basic technical overview.

- How to create a physical point-to-point HART network.

- HART commands and data frames.

- Software simulation of master/slave communication.

- Use of the popular PACTware software for HART communication.

- Advanced technical details / real world application examples.

The course doesn't contain many information but as an introductory course i think it is very good. i think you should add some real examples that you show us how to read data from PLC not just show the results i think it would be much better.

I have been in industrial maintenance for about 10 years but I'm new to the instrumentation side. I liked the course content and it has helped me understand the HART protocol.

This course was great! It really opened my eyes to the HART protocol. I deal with instrumentation at work & wanted to learn more towards what HART was. I want to thank you Emile for your wonderful explanations & resources. Do you plan on also making a more in-depth HART course?

A great course to getting started with the basics of Industry3.0 automation protocol. In-depth hands-on approach of the course helped me a lot to understand the underlying sensor communication technology. Strongly recommended course for those who want to understand & migrate automation from industry3.0 to industry 4.0

The course is brilliant. I expected it to tell me where the Data are stored and how do I output to DB or file? Also, how do I connect a wireless router to the sensor? Please send me info to samuelo@uservewireless.net kind regards Samuel Ohwesi

I had a working knowledge of HART using a hand held communicator. This course opened my mind to other posibilities. I had looked at Pactware but was put off by its complexity, not any more. This course makes it look so easy. With that i bought a HART modem on ebay. Thanks so much for this course

I learn a lot from the instructor his very knowledge he knows what his talking about, I will recommendation to others. Thank you Sir. These course help me a lot reviewing what i learn on Instrumentation I can watch over and over and become master to it and applied it to safety standard Kind regards Raul Boticario

The intro, technicalities of HART and the PACTware discussions are great. The instructor could have just ignored discussing those paid HART softwares.

Emile does a great job explaining HART Communications. I liked the demonstration of changing the file groups resulting to varying the commands being sent out along the field data bus.

This is a lot better than trying to find out about the inside of HART than through reading different books and manuals. Wish I had need when I started using HART.
