Good News! Not only has the latest version of FieldCare become the first FDT frame to pass the FDT Group’s conformance test, it also provides comprehensive FOUNDATION fieldbus support.
The objective of FDT certification is to ensure interoperability of DTMs and frames, by testing the conformance of these components against the FDT Version 1.2 specification. The systematic tests performed during the certification procedure drastically reduce interoperability issues, thus avoiding potential integration costs and project delays for the user. DTM certification is well established: Endress+Hauser and many other manufacturers already have certified libraries. With the latest version of FieldCare, they can now be used in a certified environment.
