Function check
Before commissioning the measurement point make sure that all final checks have been carried out:
• Checklist “Post-installation check”,
• Checklist “Post-connection check”,
!
Note!
• The FOUNDATION Fieldbus interface's technical data must be maintained in accordance with
IEC 61158-2 (MBP).
• The bus voltage of 9 to 32 V and the current consumption of approx. 11 mA at the indicator can
be checked using a normal multimeter.
6.2
Switching on the indicator
Once the final checks have been successfully completed, it is time to switch on the supply voltage.
The field indicator performs a number of internal test functions after power-up. As this procedure
progresses, the following sequence of messages appears on the display:
The device is ready for operation after approx. 8 seconds! Normal indicating mode commences as

Commissioning
Note the following points:
• The files required for commissioning and network configuration can be obtained as described on
• In the case of the FOUNDATION Fieldbus™, the device is identified in the host or configuration
system by means of the device ID (DEVICE_ID). The DEVICE_ID is a combination of the
manufacturer ID, device type and device serial number. It is unique and can never be assigned
twice. The DEVICE_ID of the device is composed as follows:
DEVICE_ID = 452B4810CF-XXXXXXXXXXX
452B48 = Hauser
10CF = RID1x
XXXXXXXXXXX = device serial number (11-digit)
