Current Released Version

Release 1.9 - Aug 2020Pre-Requisites
  • HART Test System v3.6

The following changes are included in this release:

Wireless Application Layer Test Execution (v1.9)
  • Tests to be executed via the Access Point with a new HART-IP Server application called hipnmgw. These tests will no longer require an external gateway for execution.
  • These tests, when run individually, are to be invoked with a 'W' appended to the test type (e.g., UALW000 will execute UAL000 wirelesslessly, and CALW033 will execute CAL033 wirelessly). Similarly, runcalw and runualw will run the respective tests in a batch file.
  • CAL071B updated to run with the HART-IP Server.
  • Batch script runcalwburst added to execute burst mode Application Layer Tests (CALW103-CALW109) on WirelessHART devices. This script executes a subset of the tests executed by runcalw.


TDMA-Mesh Layer Scripts (v1.9)
  • No functional changes.
  • Improved control of some test configurations.
  • Improved messaging on terminal.

WIHTEST (1.9)
  • No major changes.
  • Improved messaging on terminal.


Hartmenu (1.9)
  • Replaced 'U' test invocation (via UDP) with 'W' invocations (wireless) to execute Application Layer tests wirelessly (e.g., UALWxxx instead of UALUxxx).
  • Updated implemented test lists.


WirelessHART Access Point (for new Kit-193 orders only)

  • Updated hardware (Revision 2.0)
  • WirelessHART Access Point Revision 2.0 is interchangeable with WirelessHART Access Point Revision 1.1. 


Known Issues

  • Access Point hangs randomly, DR(dead) message requires a power cycle to the unit.
  • Some Secondary Master test cases fail, this is an open known issue to be addressed in a future release.
  • Logged message " cannot find device with tag "HCF-DUT" " is an open known issue to be addressed in a future release.
