The HART Communication Protocol (HART = Highway Addressable Remote TRANSDUCER) defines a bi-directional field communication protocol standard for instrument, control and AUTOMATION systems. Actually, it’s not just a standard, but the global standard for sending and receiving digital INFORMATION across analog wires between SMART devices and host systems. A host can be any software application from technician’s hand-held device or laptop to a plant’s process control, asset management, safety or other system using any control platform.
