Functions in AMS Device Manager
AMS Device Manager monitors the process values, alarms and status signals of the device.
It allows you to display, compare, adjust, verify, and simulate process device data.
Device configuration and monitoring is performed via parameters organized into three
function groups:
● Configure/Setup
● Device Diagnostics
● Process Variables
The way the device handles these parameters is described in terms of a Block Model. See
the manual, Foundation Fieldbus for Level instruments (7ML19985MP01),for details.
Four blocks have responsibility for handling these parameters:
● Level Transducer Block (LTB)
● LCD Transducer Block (LCD)
● Diagnostic Transducer Block (DIAG)
● Resource Block (RES)
Within each function group, parameters are associated with a particular Function Block.
