The subject matter disclosed herein relates to end devices (e.g., meters, sensors, pumps, etc.) of an industrial monitoring system or an industrial control system. A system includes an end device having processing circuitry configured to execute instructions stored in at least one memory device to enable the end device to collect and store a plurality of measurements of operational parameters of a monitored system in the at least one memory device according to a dynamic mapping that is updatable.

A barrier operator feature enhancement device is designed to provide one or more features found in modern barrier operator devices and to incorporate those features into a previously installed barrier operator system. To facilitate ease of use, the barrier operator feature enhancement device can communicate with a large variety of barrier operators. Such communication may be wireless or wired, depending on the communication protocol implemented by a particular previously installed barrier operator. To facilitate the ease of installation, the device is designed to configure itself to operate with the communication protocol of the previously installed barrier operator. Once configured to be able to communicate with the previously installed barrier operator, the feature enhancement device works with the barrier operator to provide one or more additional features to enhance the capabilities of the previously installed barrier operator.

A system includes, but not limited to, at least one processor, a retriever configured to retrieve a first field device parameter belonging to burst mode settings from at least one field device connected to a field network, and a transmitter. The transmitter is configured to transmit a second field device parameter belonging to burst mode settings to the at least one field device, based on at least a configuration file. The second field device parameter being associated with the first field device parameter. The first field device parameter includes, not limited to, a first determiner that determines whether to enable or disable a first automated transmission of a first process related variable of the field device, the first process related variable is one of a process variable and a diagnostic result in a burst mode. The retriever, the comparator and the transmitter are implemented by the at least one processor.

A motor controller including a communication port and a computing device coupled to the communication port is described. The computing device is capable of communicating using a plurality of communication protocols and is configured to detect that an external device has connected to the communication port. The computing device is further configured to identify a first communication protocol used by the external device, wherein the first communication protocol is one of the plurality of communication protocols, and communicate with the external device using the first communication protocol.
