SECTION 5 - OPERATING PROCEDURES
INTRODUCTION
This section addresses start-up procedures, configuration, and
monitoring of the Type PTSDL Platinum Standard Smart Level
Transmitter and the procedures that make it operational.
OPERATOR INTERFACE
The Type PTSDL level transmitter can be monitored and con-
trolled using the Type STT terminal. Connect the Type STT ter-
minal across the signal wires in a parallel connection
(Figs.
and
) wherever there is convenient access. (For
point-to-point wiring, the Type STT terminal must be con-
nected between the transmitter and the 250-ohm resistor.)
Refer to the
Type STT Smart Transmitter Terminal
for detailed information and data entry
procedures.
NOTE: All of the menu items that appear on the Type STT terminal
may not apply to the Type PTSDL level transmitter.
CONFIGURATION PROCEDURE
Configuration of the transmitter includes defining an identifi-
cation tag, primary lower and upper range values, digital or
analog mode of operation, primary engineering units, second-
ary engineering units and secondary lower and upper range
values, output parameters, cell temperature alarm limits, and
a damping constant. Use the CONFIGURE key and follow the
step-by-step procedures in the
. Once a configuration has been saved
in the Type STT terminal, download it to a connected transmit-
ter using the SEND CONFIG key. The remainder of this section
explains the configuration parameters.
ID Tag
The transmitter ID tag is a 14-character alphanumeric tag that
can be programmed into the transmitter. It is different than
the transmitter address. The ID tag is entered during configu-
ration for identification purposes. To display the ID tag on the
terminal screen, press the STATUS key.
Select Mode
Select either the analog mode or the digital mode. If the digital
mode is selected, the transmitter does not output a four to
20-milliampere signal in proportion to the input. The output
