Emerson AMS Suite: Intelligent Device Manager v12.5

Emerson Process Management’s AMS Suite: Intelligent Device Manager is now capable of commissioning Foundation fieldbus devices faster with the updated version 12.5 software. The company says users can bring devices online with the features, options, and alerts they select - in a fraction of the time it would normally take. With the software’s new functionality, Emerson anticipates reduced commissioning time on smart devices by almost 80% compared to existing work practices. In addition to faster start-up, users can now make online changes to many devices simultaneously.

The User Configurations tool enables users to standardise asset configuration and eliminate configuration errors. Users have the option to apply configuration templates to device placeholders or live devices. The devices can be commissioned one by one as field engineers are wiring the segments or automatically in groups. Built-in reporting allows users to quickly validate that parameters have been applied correctly.
