HART Protocol

The HART (Highway Addressable Remote Transducer) Protocol is a communication standard used in industrial automation to connect smart sensors and control devices over existing wiring. It allows devices to send detailed information, like measurements and diagnostics, to controllers or systems without interrupting the regular signals used for control. This enables technicians to monitor and troubleshoot equipment remotely and efficiently, improving safety and process performance. Essentially, HART enhances traditional control systems by providing additional measurement and management capabilities over current infrastructure, making industrial processes more reliable and easier to manage.
