What is a HART Multiplexer?

A HART Multiplexer that provides simple, fast & transparent access to HART field devices without additional hardware. It also enables remote asset management, device configuration, and monitoring. It allows accessing device identification, health, diagnostics, and process data.

Hart Multiplexer Software to Access Configuration & Diagnostics Data

Interface software to access HART devices from Emerson’s AMS and other HART-IP enabled applications.

smartLink SW-HT is a HART multiplexer that provides a simple and fast access to HART field devices without additional hardware. It is a software interface solution for HART devices connected to Allen-Bradley, Schneider Electric or R.Stahl HART IO modules. The integrated HART-IP server enables transparent access to the HART devices.

smartLink SW-HT enables remote asset management, device configuration and monitoring. It allows to access device identification, health, diagnostics, and process data.
