HART : Features
Field proven concept that is easy to understand and use. Compatible with existing 4-20 ma systems. 4Simultaneous point-to-point 4-20 ma and digital point-to4communication. Alternative multi-drop mode. multiMeasured variables, tag no. , range and span settings, device information, diagnostics and simple messages transmitted. Digital response time of 500 msec; burst mode response of 300 msec. Open architecture; freely available to any vendor and every user.
The Hart protocol operates using the FSK principal. The digital data is made up from two frequencies 1200 Hz and 2200 Hz representing bits 1 and 0 respectively. Sinusoidal waves of these frequencies are superimposed on the DC analog signal cables to give simultaneous analog and digital communications
HART follows the basic Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) reference model, developed by the International Organization for Standard (ISO). The HART protocol uses a reduced OSI model, implementing only layers 1,2 and 7

SD start character. AD display terminal and field addresses. CD HART instruction. BC Byte count. Status Field device and communication status (only from field device to master) The individual characters are : 1 start bit, 8 data bits, 1 bit for odd parity and 1 stop bit.
DATA INTEGRITY Physical layer : Error rate destination circuit : 1/(10^5) Link layer : Recognizes : all groups up to 3 corrupt bits and practically all longer and multiple groups. Application layer : Communication status terminated in a response message.
