Device Health Overview Imagine knowing everyday at a glance how your instrument maintenance program is doing. Are there hidden problems in your instruments that could cause a shutdown? Are you relying on instruments that are overdue for calibration? Are your commissioning, shutdown, outage, and turnaround projects on track for completion? www.emerson.com/ams 2 AMS Device Manager v14.5 FP3 September 2024 AMS Device View extends your AMS Device Manager system by delivering device health, calibration status, and project information through a browser-based interface. With AMS Device View, you can quickly see which devices need maintenance and can view recommended actions from any place that there is a browser connection. Through intuitive dashboards and focused alerts, technicians can quickly access the data needed to respond quickly. And when additional work is needed, AMS Device View can launch the full AMS Device Manager system. Even for a complex device, asset information is organized and easily accessed. Streamline Configuration AMS Device Manager makes configuration of devices simple, easy, and user-friendly. Using configuration management you can change, store, compare, and transfer device configurations. WirelessHART® devices can be easily configured using the drag and drop provisioning capability. Simply connect the wireless device via a HART® modem and then drag and drop it onto the wireless gateway. The network ID and join key are automatically written to the device. With FOUNDATIONTM Fieldbus devices, commissioning and replacing devices can be done quickly and easily without the need for user interaction with the software, getting you up and running sooner and more efficiently. Configuration information is read from any device, allowing you to make multiple changes simultaneously, compare configurations of like devices, or historical configurations on the same device. Setting up a new device configuration is as easy as a couple of clicks. Simply transfer the existing database configuration into the new device and you are up and running. Digital valve controllers, flow devices, multivariable transmitters, and wireless devices are configured quickly and easily with AMS Device Manager. Device configuration can also be done via DTM through the DTM Launcher Application. If your devices require the use of DTMs for advanced configuration or diagnostics, AMS Device Manager can handle both DDs and DTMs. View process variables, monitor device status, and detect alert events within any device connected to your host system. Faster Commissioning with Configuration Templates Before commissioning field devices, you can create templates to make the process more efficient. Define parameters for multiple devices and set configurations to follow a pre-defined standard. Templates can also be used to assign plant location, alert monitor group, HART tag, descriptor, message, ranges, and units. By using templates to configure devices in bulk, commissioning can be completed in a fraction of the time that is required with traditional methods. Typical savings range from 80-90% less time required -- with fewer configuration errors. www.emerson.com/ams 3 AMS Device Manager v14.5 FP3 September 2024 Simplify Documentation AMS Device Manager saves time and money by automating documentation around device tasks. For instance, when you make a configuration change to a device, the Audit Trail will capture when the change was made and who made it. In addition, manual entries can be created to document events not automatically captured, such as a lightning strike at the plant. Each device is also provided with a Drawings and Notes field, used to create dynamic links to your custom documents and websites. User manuals, installation guides, P&IDs, and technical contact information can be kept right at your fingertips where you need it, not in a filing cabinet in another location. Additional documentation capabilities include the ability to create reports, perform database searches, and export data into a different format. Efficient Calibration Management AMS Device Manager supports the definition of device test schemes, device calibration scheduling, and the management of device calibration data. Test schemes are defined by the calibration interval, test point and accuracy requirements, and set-up and clean-up instructions. Design calibration test schemes for individual devices or groups of instruments. Then, drag and drop the transmitter icons onto your test scheme to assign devices. There are calibration solutions for every level of need from getting started with calibration to advanced use that requires compliance with regulations like 21 CFR Part 11. Maintain Accurate Data AMS Trex uses Auto Sync technology to maintain the data integrity of your AMS Device Manager database -- without any technician intervention. Every change made in the field is automatically recorded and time-stamped. Changes are updated in real-time if WiFi connection is enabled and a technician is in a hot spot. Or changes are cached on the Trex communicator and applied to the database when the communicator detects a WiFi signal or USB cable connection. The Trex communicator logs and timestamps changes as they occur, delivering an accurate audit trail of device changes in AMS Device Manager. Improve Device Security with Lock/Unlock Ability AMS Device Manager allows you to lock devices using systembased write protection. Choose how to apply, including to all devices, critical devices, SIS devices, by location, and more. If you need to make changes to devices, they can be unlocked for a set time and then automatically locked again for added security. Set permissions by user or user group.
