PROFIBUS is an open field bus standard according to IEC 61158 / IEC 61784. It has been
created specifically for process control purposes and permits connection of several
measuring instruments to a bus line. The transmission method according to IEC 1158-2
guarantees safe signal transmission.
The PROFIBUS PA interface permits operation of the instrument from the PC:
• via FieldCare (Plant Asset Management Tool)
Any other use than the one described here compromises the safety of persons and the entire
measuring system and is not permitted.
The manufacturer is not liable for damage caused by improper or non-designated use.
1.3
Workplace safety
As the user, you are responsible for complying with the following safety conditions:
• Regulations for explosion protection
