Proline Promass 83 FOUNDATION Fieldbus

General notes

Complex measuring operations necessitate additional functions that you can configure as necessary
and customise to suit your process parameters. The function matrix, therefore, comprises a multi-
plicity of additional functions which, for the sake of clarity, are arranged on a number of menu levels
(blocks, groups, and function groups).

Comply with the following instructions when configuring functions:
• You select functions as described on Page 41. Each cell in the function matrix is identified by a

numerical or letter code on the display.

• You can switch off certain functions (OFF). If you do so, related functions in other function groups

will no longer be displayed.

• Certain functions prompt you to confirm your data entries. Press

to select “SURE [ YES ]” and

press

again to confirm. This saves your setting or starts a function, as applicable.

• Return to the HOME position is automatic if no key is pressed for 5 minutes.
• Programming mode is disabled automatically if you do not press a key within 60 seconds follo-

wing automatic return to the HOME position.

Note!
• The transmitter continues to measure while data entry is in progress, i.e. the currently measured

values are output via the signal outputs in the normal way.

• If the power supply fails all preset and parameterised values remain safely stored in the EEPROM.

Caution!
All functions are described in detail, as is the function matrix itself, in the

“Description of Device

Functions”

manual, which is a separate part of these Operating Instructions.

Enabling the programming mode

The function matrix can be disabled. Disabling the function matrix rules out the possibility of inad-
vertent changes to device functions, numerical values or factory settings. A numerical code (factory
setting = 83) has to be entered before settings can be changed.
If you use a code number of your choice, you exclude the possibility of unauthorised persons acces-
sing data (

→

see the “Description of Device Functions” manual).

Comply with the following instructions when entering codes:
• If programming is disabled and the

keys are pressed in any function, a prompt for the code

automatically appears on the display.

• If “0” is entered as the customer's code, programming is always enabled.
• The Hauser service organisation can be of assistance if you mislay your personal code.

Caution!
• Changing certain parameters such as all sensor characteristics, for example, influences numerous

functions of the entire measuring system, particularly measuring accuracy. There is no need to
change these parameters under normal circumstances and consequently, they are protected by a
special code known only to the Hauser service organisation. Please contact
Hauser if you have any questions.

• With FOUNDATION Fieldbus, programming is enabled separately in the Transducer Block.

Disabling the programming mode

Programming mode is disabled if you do not press a key within 60 seconds following automatic
return to the HOME position.
You can also disable programming in the “ACCESS CODE” function by entering any number (other
than the customer's code).
