Connect HART smart field instrumentation devices wirelessly with ProSoft Technologys ProLinx Wireless GatewaysProSoft Technologys new ProLinx 6000 Wireless HART Gateways use a digital HART to wireless interface to bring high-speed connectivity to HART field devices and enable the sharing of data between these devices over-the-air. The PLX-WA-HART Gateway utilizes the ProSoft Wireless Protocol (PWP), which allows different industrial networks and protocols to share process and status data with a secure wireless connection. The protocol driver is capable of supporting the HART protocol as a Master on up to 8 channels per gateway, each of which is individually configurable for point-to-point or multi-point applications, providing a great deal of flexibility. ProSoft Technologys PLX-WA-HART Gateway provides an ultra-fast, secure and reliable wireless solution ideal for users who wish to monitor and obtain diagnostics from remote or difficult to wire HART devices. The PLX-WA-HART gateway is an extension of ProSoft Technologys field proven HART gateway and wireless technologies and enables a path toward a wireless technology / protocol gateway that provides both a wireless infrastructure and wired control network connectivity for the future HART Communication Foundations (HCF) wireless HART protocol. ProSoft Technology is a member of HCF and supports HCFs efforts to develop a wireless HART standard.Wireless HART features include:
Up to 8 HART channels
