Chapter 2 - About smartLink HW-DP
Version EN-082020-1.00 7
2About smartLink HW-DP
The Softing smartLink HW-DP provides access to the communication system and connects the higher-level
network structure with the field level.
The default configuration allows for a start-up in only a few minutes. In order to prevent network
disruptions by unauthorized configuration changes, all configuration functions are protected by user
administration.
The smartLink HW-DP can be used with the Emerson Asset Management System (AMS) to parameterize
HART field devices.
2.1 Intended use
The device is designed to be used as a secure access point to PROFIBUS networks. Any other use is deemed
non-intended use.
CAUTION
Do not use this device in hazardous areas! See Section Specifications for permissible
ambient conditions.
2.2 Specifications
Power supply
18 VDC...32 VDC; SELV/PELV supply mandatory, typical input current 200 mA
(max. 1 A, considering rush-in current at switch-on).
Ethernet
IEEE 802.3 100BASE-TX/10BASE-T, 10BaseTXHD, 10BaseTXFD, 100BaseTXHD,
100BaseTXFD, 1000BaseTHD, 1000BaseTFD
Minimum ambient
operating temperature
-40 °C (see Installation positions for the maximum ambient temperature
depending on the mounting position)
Storage temperature
-40 °C...+85 °C
Relative humidity
10 %...95 % (non-condensing)
Altitude
must not exceed 2000 m
Location

8Version EN-082020-1.00
2.4 System requirements
To parametrize PROFIBUS and HART devices with your smartLink HW-DP you will need:
access to the Emerson AMS
24V power supply
PC with web browser
Ethernet cable
PROFIBUS cable
2.5 Safety precautions
CAUTION
During operation, the device's surface will be heated up. Avoid direct contact. When servicing,
turn off the power supply and wait until surface has cooled down.
CAUTION
The electronic components of the smartLink HW-DP are sensitive to electrostatic discharges.
Damages due to electrostatic discharge can lead to premature failure of components or
intermittent faults at a later stage. Before installing the smartLink HW-DP, divert the
electrostatic discharge away from your body and the tools used.
Note
Do not open the housing of the smartLink HW-DP. It does not contain any parts that need to
be maintained or repaired. In the event of a fault or defect, remove the device and return it to
the vendor. Opening the device will void the warranty!

Chapter 3 - Installation
Version EN-082020-1.00 9
3Installation
3.1 Hardware installation
Note
With an ambient temperature above 55 °C at the place of installation it is very likely that the
temperatures of connecting cables will increase if the cables are installed in an unfavourable
position. In such cases, measure the temperature to ensure that the service temperature of
the cables is not exceeded or use cables sustaining high temperatures of at least 90 °C.
3.1.1 Mounting and dismounting
Note
Make sure the smartLink HW-DP is mounted in such a way that the power supply can be easily
disconnected. Depending on the installation position, the maximum ambient operating
temperature may differ. See Section Installation positions for details.
Installation and inspection
Installation and inspection must be carried out by qualified personnel only (personnel qualified
according to the German standard TRBS 1203 - Technical Regulations for Operational Safety).
The definition of terms can be found in IEC 60079-17.
Mounting
1. Hook the upper notch of the cut-out on the back of the
device into a 35 mm DIN rail.
2. Leverage the screwdriver upwards, pull the locking bar
downwards and move the device down towards the rail.
3. Press the gateway down towards the rail until it slides into
place over the lip of the locking bar.
Note
Do not put stress on the system by bending or torsion.
Dismounting
1. Slide a screwdriver diagonally under the housing into the
locking bar.
2. Leverage the screwdriver upwards, pull the locking bar
downwards and move the gateway upwards off the rail.

3.1.2 Connection diagrams
The following diagram shows the input and output interfaces of the smartLink HW-DP . The device has one
10/100/1000 Base-T Ethernet port (ETH1) and one RS-485 link (DP 1) for PROFIBUS DP data
communication. The connectors on the top are reserved for the supply voltage and alarm output. The uSD
card slot is used for future service purposes and is not supported in the current version of the product.
