field device that participates in the network acts as both a source of signal 
and a repeater. Both redundancy and self-healing are provided by a wireless 
mesh network, as every node has a connection to minimum one other node 
and smart routing is used for identifying any other nodes, if its original 
connection is lost. Thus, such ideal qualities for industrial applications make 
this type of network a widely popular option in modern industrial automation 
networks.
During the implementation stage, all the configurations of transmitters, 
gateway and DeltaV serial communication card have been carried out 
properly and the communication has been successfully established without 
any alarms. Further, the process parameters have been manipulated 
alongside simulating the loss of communication for monitoring the proper 
activation of the alarm and all the data has been recorded. Another important 
step of the job has been the development of necessary documentation such 
as I/O list, BOM, Cause & Effect diagram, Electrical diagram, Interconnection 
diagram, Instrument index and P&ID. Additionally, the work carried out has 
been formed into separate parts with proper instructions for being included 
as laboratory works in upcoming year’s course curriculum. 
As a way of conclusion, the wireless mesh network based on 
WirelessHART technology has been configured and tested at BHOS 
Emerson test rig. The implementation steps and conclusions drawn have 
been included in “Laboratory Work Instruction” document prepared for 
contributing to bachelor curriculum.
