Convert your smartphone into a field-device communicator
Last July, this company released its new Android-based Smart Device Communicator Software for Foundation Fieldbus (FF). The software uses the Device Descriptior (DD) for the connected FF device, so the user has full access to every parameter and method. DevComFF.Droid offers an alternative to the traditional high-cost FF Communicators, says the company. With an FF communicator that can fit in a user’s pocket, utilizing a modern, application interface, the user has quick and easy access to the FF instrument data (photo). The Android App (DevComFF.Droid), in combination with the Softing mobiLink multi-protocol communicator, is a full-functioned FF communicator. The entire DD Library for FF devices from the FieldComm Group is included. New DDs can be added very easily by the user. A FF communicator that uses DDs can perform full configurations of valves, multivariable devices and complex devices, such as radar level meters and Coriolis flowmeters. — ProComSol, Ltd., Lakewood, Ohio
