How HART works
"HART" is an abbreviation for High Speed Addressable Remote Sensor. The HART protocol uses the Bell 202 Frequency Shift Keying (FSK) standard to superimpose low-level digital communication signals on 4 - 20mA. This technology realizes two-way field communication and makes it possible to transmit more information than general process variables with intelligent field instruments. The HART protocol communicates at a rate of 1200 bps without affecting the 4 - 20mA signal.
