HCF And ISA Collaborate On Wireless Standards

The HART Communication Foundation (HCF) and ISA have entered into an agreement to collaborate and investigate opportunities to incorporate WirelessHART into the work of the SP100 Committee. Granted a copyright license from HCF, the ISA100 committee will have access to the HART protocol specification including WirelessHART for the purpose of evaluation and consideration for adoption. In return, a copyright license has been granted by ISA to HCF allowing access to all ISA100 documents at all stages of development. A joint technical committee will be established to assess the WirelessHART technology for meeting ISA objectives and recommend possibilities for incorporation into the ISA100 family of standards.
