The Device Manager is a configuration tool that enables integration of Arc sensors into a wider range of digital protocol environments. Arc sensors are transmitter-free, communicating directly with a process control system, typically via 4–20 mA or digital interfaces. The Device Manager, based on field device technology, enables access to and management of the sensors through a range of industry-standard digital protocols. New features can also save time by allowing the user to program multiple sensors at once, and field devices from multiple manufacturers can also now be integrated with one interface.
