Designed to integrate and manage maintenance information from field instruments, monitor online conditions, and record historical data, Plant Resource Manager version 2.03 enables users to remotely access devices that feature field communication capability, such as FOUNDATION fieldbus and HART-enabled devices, as well as centralized management and parameters of these devices. Device-specific information, parameter settings, inspection records, and instruction manuals are stored in a database that operators can easily access. Other new features include plug-in applications (helper) software to tune and self-diagnose devices, and HART parameter management in an Oracle database.
