Why use Bluetooth® connectivity instead of a wired connection?

Bluetooth connectivity eliminates the time, cost, and risk of physically connecting to field devices. Benefits include: No hot work permits required for routine configuration tasks No climbing tanks, scaffolding, or opening enclosures to reach devices No exposure of internal components to harsh environments, improving device reliability Safer, remote access to device in hazardous, congested, or hard-to-reach locations Faster troubleshooting with live device data broadcast to the technician's tool For maintenance teams, this means more devices serviced per shift with no specialized tools needed and less risk to personnel and equipment.

Which Emerson devices support Bluetooth® connectivity?

Devices with Bluetooth Connectivity: Rosemount™ Pressure 4051S, 3051 Rosemount™ Level 3408, 1208 Rosemount™ Temperature 3144S Micro Motion™ Coriolis 4700 Config I/O, 4700 IS I/O, 1600 Config I/O, 1600 Ethernet Fisher™ Final Control FIELDVUE™ DVC7K Digital Valve Controller, ARMOR™

What is the AMS Device Configurator app and where can I get it?

AMS Device Configurator is Emerson's free mobile and PC application for connecting to field instruments enabled with Bluetooth connectivity. It is available on: Android Windows PC AMS Trex™ 2 Device Communicator iOS The app uses device descriptors (DDs) to deliver a consistent, familiar experience across all Emerson products, so technicians don't need to learn a separate software tool to enjoy the benefits of Bluetooth connectivity.

Is Bluetooth® communication with Emerson devices secure?

Yes. Emerson's Bluetooth® connectivity implementation includes multiple layers of security: Encrypted data transfers between the device and the AMS Device Configurator app Password protection with role-based access controls Authenticated device pairing to prevent unauthorized access This layered approach helps maintain secure communication while enabling convenient local device configuration and diagnostics.

How does Bluetooth® connectivity integrate with my existing maintenance workflow?

Bluetooth connectivity plugs directly into the workflows your teams already use: Same device descriptor (DD) interface as AMS Device Manager and AMS Trex™ 2 for a familiar experience Live status broadcasting so technicians can identify devices that need attention before reaching them Save and send device configurations without the need for a physical connection at speeds up to 10x faster than traditional HART® Faster firmware updates at speeds up to 10x faster than traditional HART® Live status broadcasting so technicians can identify devices that need attention before reaching them This means less time on routine tasks and more time on the work that needs human expertise.

Bluetooth Connectivity for Field Instrumentation

Work smarter, faster, and more efficiently

No hot work permit. No climbing. No guesswork. Bluetooth technology allows you to configure, maintain, or troubleshoot field instruments on-the-go to quickly perform rounds, resolve simple issues, and address what needs immediate attention. The AMS Device Configurator app interface provides a consistent experience across Emerson products and gives convenient access to information. Emerson’s Bluetooth technology support in AMS Device Configurator is available on the Android™, Windows, and iOS operating systems, plus the AMS Trex Device Communicator. Discover a simpler process for performing routine tasks without need for a physical connection.

1. Productivity

Quickly locate field devices and perform tasks related to configuration, device status, and diagnostics.

2. Reliability

Devices are protected from unnecessary exposure to the environment, increasing the reliability of the device and the process.

3. Safety

Access device information from a safe location with reduced equipment and less time in hazardous areas.

Bluetooth Connectivity

Don’t worry about having to learn another software program. The AMS Device Configurator Bluetooth app uses device descriptors to communicate with field instruments and provides an app experience similar to AMS Device Manager and AMS Trex – at communication speeds up to 10x faster than traditional HART® connections.
