1. DESCRIPTION
The BA488CF Fieldbus Display is an intrinsically
safe instrument that can display up to eight
fieldbus process variables, together with their
units of measurement and tag information. The
instrument is bus powered so no additional power
supply is required.
Two versions are available, one for Profibus PA
and the other for Fieldbus Foundation systems.
The Foundation Fieldbus version may be ordered,
or configured on-site, with alternative function
blocks allowing use with most Fieldbus
Foundation hosts.
Order Communication Function

BA488CF-P Profibus PA Eight Analogue Outputs
(8 x AO)
BA488CF-F Fieldbus Revision 1
Foundation One Multiple Analogue
Output
(1 x MAO)
or Revision 2
Two Input Selectors
(2 x IS)
The required Device Description files, which may
be downloaded from the Fieldbus Foundation or
BEKA web sites, depend upon which BA488CF-F
revision is selected.
The instrument’s communications protocol is
shown on certification information label located on
the top outer surface of the enclosure.
Nine selectable standard display formats enable
one, two, three or four process variables, some
with bargraphs to be displayed on one screen.
Alternatively, custom display formats including
text and simple graphics may be generated and
saved in permanent memory.
The six front panel push buttons that control the
instrument display may also be used for returning
operator acknowledgements, thus enabling the
Fieldbus Display to function as a simple operator
interface. If larger industrial push buttons are
required for entering these acknowledgements, up
to six external switches may be connected to the
BA488CF. These switch inputs may also be
used for returning the status of plant contacts.
The Fieldbus Display can be supplied with six
optional alarm outputs that may be linked to any
of the displayed fieldbus variables.
The instrument has been certified intrinsically safe
by European Notified Body Intertek Testing
Services (ITS) to the ATEX Directive 94/9/EC.
For use in the USA the instrument has intrinsic
safety and nonincendive FM Approval – see
Appendix 1, plus IECEx intrinsic safety approval
for international applications – see Appendix 2.
Housed in a robust 72 x 144 panel mounting DIN
enclosure, the BA488CF Fieldbus Display has an
IP66 front panel and is supplied with a gasket to
seal the joint between the instrument and the
panel.

1.2 Version 2.0 firmware
This manual describes the enhanced features of
BA488CF fieldbus displays employing version 2.0
firmware that was released in December 2005.
Namely:
Standard screens increased from 4 to 9
Multiple bargraph limits added
Input scaling added
Fieldbus Foundation version now has choice
of fieldbus function blocks:
Revision 1 1 x MAO (multiple analogue
output)
Revision 2, 2 x IS (Input selector)
Selection can be made on-site.
The instrument’s firmware version can be
established using the ‘Unit Info’ function in the
main configuration menu – see section 6.3.9 of
this manual.
BA488CF displays employing version 2.0
firmware are backwards compatible with all earlier
versions of the instrument.
