Version 11 adds PROFIBUS DP v1 asset support when used with the DeltaV digital automation system. Also included in the release is support for current and past versions of DeltaV and Ovation systems and connectivity to Siemens SIMATIC PCS 7 host systems.AMS Device Manager is a key component of the PlantWeb digital plant architecture and is designed to help users streamline maintenance procedures by providing a single application for managing all field devices using HART, FOUNDATION fieldbus, PROFIBUS DP, and IEC 62591 (WirelessHART) communications. Having a central point to actively manage all asset information allows users to take full advantage of predictive diagnostics to ensure equipment reliability and availability.An interface within AMS Device Manager, called Device Dashboards, provided asset status diagnostics and guidance to streamline frequently-performed tasks, offering maintenance technicians in-depth information to more easily solve device issues.The list of instrumentation and valves supported by AMS Device Manager has been expanded by the protocol support for PROFIBUS DP assets. Users can now communicate with motor starters, motor control centres, drives, and other high value equipment, accessing diagnostics and configurations for more assets than ever before.
