Measurement error reduction in a process bus system

An engineering tool for reducing measurement error in a process bus system, wherein the engineering tool is capable of configuring one or more process bus subscriber devices and comprises:

• a receiver configured to receive a file by the engineering tool from a system configurator tool;
• a parser configured to parse the file to identify a value associated with a transformer setting for a process bus device of the process bus system;
• the receiver configured to fetch information from installation data to identify the value associated with the transformer setting when the value associated with the transformer setting is not identified in the file;
• a memory configured to store the value associated with the transformer setting for the process bus device in the engineering tool when the value associated with the transformer setting is identified in the file or in the information fetched from the installation data;
• a processor configured to mark the value as a missing value to visually notify a technician of the engineering tool when the value associated with the transformer setting for the process bus device is not identified in the information fetched from the installation data or in the file;
• and
• a transmitter configured to publish the identified value associated with the transformer setting for the process bus device at a remote database for the one or more process bus subscriber devices, wherein the one or more process bus subscriber devices uses the value associated with the transformer setting published at the remote database to update its own transformer setting for reducing the measurement error.

A process bus client device for reducing measurement error in a process bus system, the process bus client device comprising:

• a receiver configured to fetch information from installation data;
• a parser configured to parse the information fetched from installation data to identify a value associated with a transformer setting for the process bus client device of the process bus system;
• a memory configured to store the value associated with the transformer setting for the process bus client device when the value associated with the transformer setting is identified in the information fetched from the installation data;
• a processor configured to mark the value as a missing value to visually notify a technician of an engineering tool when the value associated with the transformer setting for the process bus client device is not identified in the information fetched from the installation data;
• and
• a transmitter configured to publish the identified value associated with the transformer setting for the process bus client device at a remote database for one or more process bus subscriber devices, wherein the one or more process bus subscriber devices uses the value associated with the transformer setting published at the remote database to update its own transformer setting for reducing the measurement error.
