Step 4. Tank Database configuration
The tank database of the Rosemount 2460 System Hub ensures that the system hub requests
information from all the connected field devices. It is very important that the Tank Database of the
Rosemount 2460 System Hub is properly configured to allow communication between the Rosemount
2460, the Rosemount 2410 Tank Hub, and field devices such as the Rosemount 5900S Radar Level
Gauge, the Rosemount 2240S Multi-Input Temperature Transmitter, pressure transmitters, and other
field devices supported by the system hub.
See Appendix C: Enraf® Device Configuration , Appendix E: Whessoe Device Configuration , Appendix H:
L&J Device Configuration , and Appendix I: Varec® Device Configuration for information on how to
configure the Rosemount 2460’s tank database for devices from other vendors.
Note
Once all devices and tanks are installed and configured, the position of a device in the Tank Database
may not be changed, since this will result in corrupt mapping of tank to Tank Database position.
To configure
(1)
the Rosemount 2460 tank database:
1. Find a free tank position (2460 Tank 1, 2, 3...) for the device to be configured.
2. Choose the appropriate Source device.
For a Rosemount Tank Gauging system this is typically a Rosemount 2410 Tank Hub.
The Rosemount 2460 System Hub also supports many other Rosemount Tank Gauging devices as well
as devices from other vendors
