PACTware uses a standardised interface between the frame program PACTware and the individual software modules for instrument operation.
This interface is known as FDT; the software modules for instrument adjustment are called DTMs. This configuration makes modern and user-friendly adjustment concepts possible because the interface for instrument adjustment is optimally adapted to each instrument.
Furthermore, you can communicate with PACTware not only via HART but also via any standard field bus system. To this end, different so-called “communication DTMs” are available. In PACTware, these instrument and communication DTMs are assembled individually according to the given requirements.
PACTware enables open, comprehensive adjustment of different field instruments via any bus system.
Main features:
- is manufacturer-independent configuration software for all field instruments
- is communication, i.e. fieldbus-independent
- supports the full range of functions of all field instruments
- offers diagnostics and asset management functionality
- simplifies setup in automation
- is versatile and can be used in different areas of a plant
- is prepared for future standards such as e.g. Ethernet
- is future ready
- is free of charge and can be used by anyone
