Opto HART Toolkit Documentation

Introduction

This toolkit communicates with SNAP-PAC-AOA-23-iH and SNAP-PAC-AIMA-iH I/O modules via a SNAP PAC brain or controller. It allows you to easily find and communicate with HART devices connected to those modules. The toolkit can be used under either .NET or MONO, making it even easier to add to your existing application.

Getting Started

  1. Download PAC-DEV-HART.zip from opto22.com
  2. Extract the files to your project directory
  3. In your project, add a reference to Opto22.HART.dll
  4. Define a using directive for Opto22.HART
  5. Create a HART variable using the IP address of your SNAP-PAC brain, the rack position of your HART module, and the desired module channel
  6. Discover the addresses of the devices on your network using FindDevices()
  7. Send any HART command you want using SendReceive()
