Configuration with the graphical user interface (DTM)

7.5.1

System requirements

— Operating control program (e.g. SMART VISION version
4.01 or higher)
— DTM or Asset Vision Basic (Device Type Manager, graphic
user interface)
— Operating system (depending on the respective control
program)
1. The DTM is started in 3 steps, either using the right
mouse button or via the 'Device' menu item, with 1.
'More' and 2. 'Process'.
2. After a 'Connection set-up' (Step 3 ), the data from the
261Gx / Ax transmitter should be fully loaded first.
Modified data will be underlined in blue.
IMPORTANT (NOTICE)
If modified data is not displayed underlined in
blue, click in another window before the data is
transferred to the device. The modified value is
then displayed underlined in blue.
3. This data is sent to the device by selecting 'Save data to
device'.
IMPORTANT (NOTICE)
Saving the data in the transmitter automatically
saves it to the non-volatile memory.
For this purpose, the transmitter must be
supplied with power for two minutes.
Failure to observe this will cause the transmitter
to revert to the previous data the next time it is
used.
The communication name updates automatically when the
data is loaded from the device.
The most important configuration / parameterization options in
the user interface are briefly listed below. For further
information on the menu commands, refer to the context-
sensitive help.
IMPORTANT (NOTICE)
Before beginning with device setup, make sure
that write protection is disabled in the DTM as
well as in the LCD indicator.

Parameter descriptions

Write protection
Enabling/Disabling is performed via the DTM, handheld
terminal or LCD indicator.
When "Write Protect" is enabled for the device, HART write
protection is set, i.e., it is not possible to configure the device
locally or via external tools such as a handheld terminal (HHT).
It is, however, possible to read out data.
Write protection can be cancelled by selecting "User data
write enabled".
Local operation
Enabling/Disabling is performed via DTM or HHT.
Setup with indicator "Disabled" means that the transmitter
cannot be configured using the pushbutton for the lower and
upper range values or, if there is an LCD indicator present
(optional), that it cannot be configured via the display menu.
Once "Local operation" is disabled, it cannot be enabled again
on the LCD indicator.
Correcting the zero shift
Menu path
"Configure_Configure Pressure Measurement_Pressure"
Press the "Adjust" button in the "Zero Shift" field.
Calibration is performed immediately and saved to the failsafe
memory.
