HART pass-through:
Media: The system has pass-through functionality and can be connected either as local I/O (S800) or as Remote I/O.
Purpose: Makes HART data available for clients, e.g. Fieldbus Builder
Protocol: HART protocol
SW interface: Process data via 4 – 20 mA signal are I/O copied to application variables. HART data (status and diagnostic data) are available via “pass-through”.
HW Interface: S800 I/O modules AI845, AI895, AO845 and AO845 S900 I/O modules AI930/931 and AO930
OPC interface: Yes, via HART OPC server

Technical Specifications
Diagnostics & Status Indication
The DO801 provides the following diagnostic capabilities for efficient troubleshooting :
-
Short-circuit protection: Outputs are short-circuit proof with current limiting
-
OSP function: On communication error, outputs can be set to predetermined safe state
System Integration Notes
Compatible MTUs (Module Termination Units)
The DO801 must be installed on a compatible termination unit. Supported MTUs include :
-
TU810 / TU812 / TU814 / TU818 – screw termination variants
-
TU830 / TU833 / TU838 – spring termination variants
-

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: How many output channels does the DO801 provide?
The DO801 provides 16 digital output channels arranged in one isolated group .
Q2: What is the output type?
The DO801 features current-sourcing (PNP / high-side) transistor outputs for 24V DC loads. The module supplies positive voltage to the load, and the load connects between the output terminal and ground .
Q3: What is the maximum current per channel?
Each channel supports a maximum continuous output current of 0.5 A .
Q4: Does the module provide short-circuit protection?
Yes. The DO801 is short-circuit proof with current-limited outputs. It also provides over-voltage and over-temperature protection per channel .
Q5: What is the OSP function?
OSP (Output Safe Preset) allows the module to automatically set outputs to a predetermined safe state in the event of a communication or module fault .
Q6: Is the DO801 suitable for inductive loads?
Yes. The module includes integrated inductive load suppression components . For larger inductive loads, external flyback diodes are recommended .
Q7: Can I replace this module while the system is powered?
Yes, the module supports hot swap (removal and insertion under power), minimizing system downtime .
Q8: What is the maximum field cable length?
The maximum recommended field cable length is 600 meters when using shielded cable .
Q9: What MTU is compatible with the DO801?
Compatible MTUs include: TU810, TU812, TU814, TU818, TU830, TU833, TU838, and TU850 .
Q10: What certifications does the DO801 carry?
The module carries CE mark, UL 508, ATEX Zone 2, Class 1 Div 2, and marine certifications (ABS, BV, DNV-GL, LR, RS, CCS) .
