General EJX Series

FOUNDATION FieldbusTM
Specifications Communication
GS 01C25T02-01E

FOUNDATION fieldbus is the digital communication line

for the field instruments, whose signal is internationally
standardized by Fieldbus Foundation.
The Fieldbus bi-directional digital communication
performance makes possible for the field instruments
and the control devices to be a complete on-line
system, superseding the existing analog transmission
lines. EJX series differential pressure transmitters can
also measure and transmit the static pressure value.
Thus, based on FOUNDATION fieldbus specifications,
EJX Fieldbus models offer more flexible instrumenta-
tion through a higher level communication capability
and propose the cost reduction by multi-drop wirings
with less cables.

䊏 FEATURES

● Interoperability ● Alarm function

FOUNDATION fieldbus specifications grant the EJX Fieldbus models securely support various alarm
interoperability of the field instruments without functions, such as high/low alarm, notice of block

tions.

● Multi-signal display (Applicable when digital indicator such as function blocks and diagnostics to existing
is specified) devices.
Up to four I/O signals can be alternatively displayed
on the digital indicator. The block tags, the parameter
names, the process units and the statuses are also
displayed in order to show what the displayed signals
are.

● Link master function

EJX Fieldbus models support the Link Master
function. This function enables backup of network
manager and local control only by field devices.
