Operation via SIMATIC PDM 6 (HART)
(SITRANS LUT400 compatible with PDM version 6.1)
Features and Functions
SIMATIC PDM is a software package used to commission and maintain SITRANS LUT400 and
other process devices. PDM monitors the process values, alarms and status signals of the
device. It allows you to display, compare, adjust, verify, and simulate process device data; also
to set schedules for calibration and maintenance. Please consult the LUT400 online help for
details on using SIMATIC PDM. (You can find more information at:
www.siemens.com/simatic-pdm.)
SIMATIC PDM features four Quick Start Wizards (Level, Volume, Volume-Linearization, and
Flow) to easily configure the SITRANS LUT400. A Pump Control Wizard is also available. Other
features include Echo Profile Utilities, Manual TVT Shaper adjustment, Auto False Echo
Suppression screening, Process Variables monitoring, and Maintenance scheduling.
Parameters are identified by name and organized into function groups. The menu
structure for SIMATIC PDM is almost identical to that of the LCD. See

on page 277 for a chart. For a complete list of parameters, see

reference (LUI)
on page 137.
Startup and Configuration
To startup the SITRANS LUT400 using SIMATIC PDM, check that you have the latest version of
PDM installed (update your installation if necessary - see

install the EDD. Next, configure the device using the Quick Start Wizards in PDM.
Note:
Italian, Portuguese and Russian are not supported in the software tools for
remote operation. If the device is set to one of these languages, it may be necessary to
