SAFETY MESSAGES
Instructions and procedures in this section may require special precautions to
ensure the safety of the personnel performing the operations. Information that
raises potential safety issues is indicated by a warning symbol ( ). Please
refer to the following safety messages before performing an operation
preceded by this symbol.
FIELD COMMUNICATOR
The Menu Tree and Fast Key sequences use the following device revisions:
• Traditional Interface: Device Revision Dev v4, DD v2
• Device Dashboard: Device Revision v4, DD v3
The Field Communicator exchanges information with the transmitter from the
control room, the instrument site, or any wiring termination point in the loop.
To facilitate communication, connect the Field Communicator in parallel with
the transmitter (see Figure 2-10) using the loop connection ports on the top of
the Field Communicator. The connections are non-polarized. Do not make
connections to the NiCad recharger jack in explosive atmospheres. Before
connecting the Field Communicator in an explosive atmosphere, make sure
the instruments in the loop are installed according to intrinsically safe or
non-incendive field wiring practices
Updating the HART
Communication Software
The Field Communicator software may need to be updated to take advantage
of the additional features available in the 3144P (field device revision 4).
Perform the following steps to determine if an upgrade is necessary.
1. Choose “Rosemount” from the list of manufacturers and “3144 Temp”
from the list of models.
2. If the
Fld Dev Rev
choices include “Dev v4, DD v2,” an upgrade is not
required. If the choices are “Dev v1,” “Dev v2,” “Dev v3,” (with any DD
version), then the user will be able to connect to the device with reduced
functionality.
NOTE
The original release of the safety-certified 3144P uses the name “3144P SIS”
from the model list and requires “Dev v2, DD v1.”
Explosions may result in death or serious injury.
• Do not remove the instrument cover in explosive atmospheres when the circuit is
live.
• Before connecting a Field Communicator in an explosive atmosphere, make sure
the instruments in the loop are installed in accordance with intrinsically safe or
non-incendive field wiring practices.
• Both covers must be fully engaged to meet explosion–proof requirements.
Electrical shock could cause death or serious injury. If the sensor is installed in a
high-voltage environment and a fault or installation error occurs, high voltage may be
present on transmitter leads and terminals.
• Use extreme caution when making contact with the leads and terminals.
