UNICOMM SAT-504
HART/USB BLUETOOTH MODEM
Thank you for choosing a NIVELCO instrument.
We are sure that you will be satisfied throughout its use!
1. APPLICATION
The UNICOMM SAT-504 modem establishes communication between HART®-capable field devices and a
process controller computer. The UNICOMM HART®modems are applicable for all HART®-capable
transmitters that use standard HART®communication.
Depending on the design the following versions can be ordered:
– HART®/USB modem, normal type;
– HART®/USB modem with power supply for transmitter and switchable HART®terminal resistor;
– HART®/USB modem with power supply for transmitter, switchable HART®terminal resistor and
Bluetooth®interface.
The modem ensures galvanic isolation for the transmitter from the process controller system and it is
powered by a USB interface or a USB power bank.

3. COMMUNICATION OPTIONS
The modem meets the HART®communication standards and applicable for all
HART®-capable transmitters that use standard HART®communication.
To enable communication through the USB 1.1. or USB 2.0. port of the PC a
driver program (FT 232 RL) is needed. This driver can be downloaded from the
CD-ROM containing the EView2 program package provided to all NIVELCO
transmitters purchased with HART®option. The program can also be downloaded
from the http://ftdichip.com website.
4. WIRING, OPERATION
The modem should be connected to a HART®field device by 2 pieces of KLEPS2
measuring clamps. The SAT-504 does not have surge protection, thus use of an
adequate lightning protection that does not affect standard HART®signal
transmission is advised.
