Honeywell’s Process Instrument Explorer software runs on a pocket PC, desktop or laptop and allows the user to quickly set up and configure UDC2500/3200/3500 controllers. Users can create/edit configurations live or offline via RS-485, Ethernet or infrared communications. It takes only a few seconds to upload or download a configuration to an instrument. Users can save the configuration file for review, modification or archiving. This software also provides important information about the controller’s current operating parameters, digital inputs and alarm status, and identifies internal or analog input problems.

The infrared connection provides a non-intrusive wireless connection with the instrument and maintains NEMA 4X and IP66 integrity without the need to access the back of the controller to communicate with the instrument. Users can duplicate an instruments configuration, upload or download a new configuration in a matter of seconds, just by pointing a pocket PC in the direction of the instrument.
