Configuration
Write protect
The
Write Protect
command protects the transmitter configuration data from accidental or
unwarranted changes. To enable the write protect feature:
1.
From the
HOME
screen choose
1 Device Setup, 2 Diag/Service, 3 Write Protect
.
2.
Choose
Enable WP
.
Note
To disable write protect on the Rosemount 248, repeat the procedure, replacing
Enable WP
with
Disable WP
.
HART output
The
HART Output
command allows the user to make changes to the multidrop address, initiate
burst mode, or make changes to the burst options.
Alarm and saturation
The
Alarm/Saturation
command allows the alarm settings (Hi or Low) and saturation values to be
viewed and changed. To change the alarm values and saturation values, select the value to be
changed, either
2 Low Alarm
,
3 High Alarm
,
4 Low Sat.
, or
5 High Sat
then enter the desired new
value, which must fall within the guidelines:
The low alarm value must be between 3.50 and 3.75 mA
The high alarm value must be between 21.0 and 23.0 mA
The low saturation level must be between the low alarm value plus 0.1 mA and 3.9 mA.
Example: The low alarm value has been set to 3.7 mA. Therefore, the low saturation level, S,
must be 3.8
S
3.9 mA.
The high saturation level must be between 20.5 mA and the high alarm value minus 0.1
mA.
Example: The high alarm value has been set to 20.8 mA. Therefore, the low saturation level, S,
must be 20.5
S
20.7 mA.
See
for Failure Mode considerations.
Rerange
Reranging the transmitter sets the measurement range to the limits of expected readings which
maximizes transmitter performance; the readings are is most accurate when the transmitter is
operated within the expected temperature range for the application.
