3.2.2 HART Protocol Test Specifications

This is a list of HART protocol test specifications. The following documents describe the details of HART testing. The documents describe how the tests are constructed and what different test failures look like.

  • FSK Physical Layer Test Specification (HCF_TEST-2 FCG TT20002)
  • Token-Passing Data Link Layer Test Specification (HCF_TEST-1 FCG TT20001)
  • Universal Command Test Specification (HCF_TEST-3 FCG TT20003)
  • Common Practice Command Test Specification (HCF_TEST-4 FCG TT20004)

While the entire HART protocol specifications can be viewed online, only the table of contents of these test specifications can be viewed online at the FieldComm Group website. Non-member companies must purchase the bound books. Member companies can download electronic copies of the specifications in a PDF.
