A device for wireless communication with a process automation field device. The device may include an inductive interface in the field device embodied to couple with a complementary inductive interface of a service tool. The field device inductive interface may be embodied to inductively transfer data to the service tool and to inductively receive data and energy from the service tool. The energy received from the service tool may be sufficient for operating the field device's inductive interface. A method of wireless communication is also disclosed.
