Abstract

The paper presents description of three different protocol gateways for interfacing HART pressure sensors. The gateways have been designed, programmed and realized as hardware prototypes. The first gateway is a wireless transducer between the HART interface of the sensor and a Bluetooth network. The second gateway connects the sensor to an Ethernet network with Modbus protocol. The third gateway is a wireless transducer for ZigBee networks. The gateways are based on embedded microcontrollers with the required interfaces. The software implementation is done in C using protocol libraries. Hardware and enclosure are designed for industrial applications. The gateways are adapted for use with HART pressure sensors.
