Introduction
FIELDVUE instrumentation provides NO EQUAL diagnostics capabilities that clearly differentiate Fisher control
valve packages from other control valve packages. However, end-users often do not have a HART or
fieldbus-capable control system that enables them to get the benefit of FIELDVUE diagnostic capabilities.
There are two easy ways to unleash the power of valve diagnostics in such an environment:
Wireless—the THUMr adapter, or
Hardwiring—using HART to analog converters
This document provides a hardwiring technical solution, using the Smart HART Loop Interface and Monitor
(HIM) from Moore Industries, shown in figure 1, that will enable conventional analog control system users to
benefit from FIELDVUE diagnostic capabilities.

Figure 2. Four Phases of Valve Diagnostics
Using the Moore HIM to Convert a HART
R
Signal into Analog and Digital
Control Signals
FIELDVUE diagnostics allow you to better manage abnormal situations and/or implement preventive
maintenance on control and safety valves.
The practice of valve diagnostics includes four phases:
D Fault Detection
D Fault Discrimination
D Process Recovery
D Validation
The first phase, Fault Detection, is the only phase that requires a FIELDVUE instrument (as the diagnostic tool) to
be capable of automatically reporting the unanticipated or abnormal situation. The other three phases can be
performed by temporarily attaching asset management software to the FIELDVUE instrument.
By converting a HART signal into an analog and digital control signal, the Moore HIM can be used to automatically
report a FIELDVUE instrument alert on a conventional analog control system.

Figure 3. Using the HIM in a Conventional Analog Control System
Example: Control Valve
In this example, shown in figure 3, the HIM is used to automatically report on a conventional analog control
system:
D the real valve travel is 4-20 mA analog input
D Travel Deviation alert is a binary digital input, and
D Diagnostic Data is available as a binary digital input
When the valve deviates from the set parameters, an alert is reported in the conventional system, allowing the
operator to trigger a point-to-point diagnostic on the valve (second phase of the valve diagnostic practice: Fault
Discrimination). In this same way, the Diagnostic Data Available alert indicates to the operator that the valve has
deviated from the set parameters and that this data is available for download to facilitate the Fault Discrimination
phase.

Figure 4. Using the HIM in a Safety Control System
Example: Safety Valve
The DVC6000 SIS digital valve controller can be used in conjunction with the HIM to provide additional diagnostic
coverage. Installed transparently across the 4-20 mA or 24 volt instrument loop, the HIM receives the HART
digital process data and converts the digital information into up to three scalable, isolated analog (4-20 mA)
process signals and two relay outputs that are readily accepted by an existing safety or control system, such as
the DCS or PLC.
The HIM can be used to hardwire to a PLC (through its two relay outputs) the following DVC6000 SIS alerts:
D Valve Stuck, and
D Diagnostic in Progress (PST in Progress)
The Moore HIM can also be used to automatically report the safety valve position. In some instances, this may
eliminate the need for external limit switches.
Additionally, as shown in figure 4, the HIM can also be used to disable an open external limit switch on a safety
valve during a Partial Stroke Test sequence.
