3.2 Principle of operation
VEGACONNECT 4 is an interface converter for connection of
communication-capable VEGA instruments to the USB interface of
a Windows PC. It can also be used as a universal HART modem for
sensors from other manufacturers. An adjustment software such as
PACTware with VEGA DTMs is required for parameter adjustment of
these instruments.
VEGACONNECT 4 can be connected to the following VEGA instru-
ments. All currently available electronics versions are supported
(HART, Profibus PA, Foundation Fieldbus). When instruments from
the plics
®
series are used, VEGACONNECT 4 can be inserted directly
into the respective instrument.

Connection cable, adapter and terminals for connection to the differ
-
ent instrument series are attached to all VEGACONNECT 4. These
adapters can be kept in the storage space of the connection box.
The Bluetooth USB adapter enables the wireless adjustment of VEGA
sensors with a Windows PC. For this, a PLICSCOM with Bluetooth
option integrated in the sensor or a sensor with integrated Bluetooth
function are required. In this case, the VEGACONNECT is not used,
here the box is only a preserving possibility for the Bluetooth USB
adapter. You can find further information of this application in the
operating instruction of PLICSCOM or the sensor with integrated
Bluetooth function. Depending on the version ordered, the Bluetooth
USB adapter is not part of each box.
The magnet pen enables the adjustment of the PLICSCOM but-
tons with closed housing lid with inspection window.In this case,
