THZ & TDZ
Installing the Configuration Software
Refer to Table 5 for the equipment needed.
1.
Insert the diskette labeled “TDZ/THZ
Configuration Program Installation Disk 1 of 3”
into the floppy drive of the PC.
2.
In Windows
®
95/98/NT, go to the “Start” menu,
and access “Settings”, then “Control Panel”,
and finally “Add/Remove Programs”.
3.
Click “Install” and follow the instructions on
the screen.
Note:
Two utility disks are also provided with your PC Pro-
gram. These are for users of Windows 95 with
Internet Explorer 3.0x, or Windows NT.
Do not install these if you are using Windows 98.

Specifications
Connecting the THZ or TDZ to the PC
To set any of the options, you must first connect
the unit to the PC. The THZ hockey-puck, THZ
DIN, THZ DH, and TDZ all have the same terminal
designations, and all can be setup using the
connections shown in Figure 10, page 12.
Establish a simple current loop for the transmitter
by connecting a 24-volt power supply, a 250
Ω
resistor, and the transmitter in series. See Table 5
below for information on the necessary equipment.
Then connect a suitable HART modem. Connect
the RS-232 end of the modem to the PC’s COM
port, then connect the HART output end of the
modem (two hookup wires) across the transmitter
or the load resistor.
This makes it easy to create a set of operating pa-
rameters, save them to disk, and download them to
one or more transmitters at a later time.
The THZ or TDZ
must be connected to the PC in or-
der to: trim input, trim output, assign a tag, perform a
loop test, receive (via download) a configuration file,
and save the configuration file from the transmitter’s
memory.
Once the Configuration Program is installed on the
PC, the THZ or TDZ can be connected to equipment
to simulate input and monitor output. The user can
then change the transmitter’s operating parameters.
No Transmitter Needed
It is not necessary to connect the transmitter to a PC
to create configuration files using the software. The
Configuration Program can be run without connecting
a transmitter, and
most parameters can be set
without benefit of input from a sensor or transmitter.
