Hello niztronic; PDM does not support DTM format for the different instruments it can integrate; it rather uses electronic datasheets (EDDL format). You generally can askdifferent m,anufacturers for the EEDL version of their devices; we used to do this for Endress & Hauser equipment, your should ask Emerson for the same. Here is an extract of the PDM 8.0 manual that discusses device description integration: SIMATIC Process Control System PCS 7 SIMATIC PDM 8.0 4.4.1 How to integrate a device description The Device Integration Manager is the SIMATIC PDM function for integrating device descriptions. Device descriptions on the "Device Library" DVD Make sure the device descriptions are always integrated in SIMATIC PDM from the "Device Library" DVD provided with your version of SIMATIC PDM. Changes in the device descriptions and the catalog structure may exist between the different versions Procedure 1. Go to the Windows start menu and select the menu command SIMATIC PDM > Device Integration Manager under Siemens SIMATIC programs.To be able to use the Device Integration Manager, you must accept the license agreement. 2. Select the menu command File > Read device descriptions from source.... 3. In the tree structure, navigate to the folder containing the device descriptions. Note on the "Device Library" DVD: The "Device Library" DVD is supplied with SIMATIC PDM. Select the drive containing the DVD.– Click the "Read" button.The device descriptions found are displayed in the "Devices" list. You can find additional information on this in the section "Device list (Page 34)". 4. Select the check boxes for the devices whose device descriptions are to be inte

Hello Niztronick; In the download pages for Emerson Micro Motion 1700 there are 2 files, one for DTM, one for DD (HART device description, should correspond to EDDL format): http://www2.emersonprocess.com/en-us/documentation/deviceinstallkits/Pages/deviceinstallkitsearch.aspx It should integrate in PDM. Hope this helps, Daniel Chartier |

That is the problem. I downloaded the DD file and then tried to integrate it into PDM but when I browsed to that DD files, PDM didnt find anything. Regards |

Hello Niztronic; What confuses me is that in the document I attached previously you do find the Micro Motion series 1000 EDD as part of the HCF selection in PDM (which is why I presumed that the Emerson file would be compatible). I have located the file in the Hart Communication Foundation (HCF) webpages for download. Look at the following FAQ from Siemens on PDM DD integration and this link to the HCF download pages: Information about the Device Description Library "SIMATIC PDM Device Library 1#2012" http://www.hartcommproduct.com/inventory2/index.php?action=viewprod&num=208 |

Hi, Are you able to find the DD file for the flowmeter? Best regards, Naresh Saini |
