Always disconnect the device from the power supply 
before making changes to DIP switches. 
The device must then be restarted for the new configura-
tions to be loaded.
We recommend resetting the corresponding DIP switch to 
position 0 after each replace operation. 
Replace mode (DIP switches 1 and 2) 
In normal mode the DIP switches 1 and 2 are in position 0. 
If a replacement procedure is necessary, they will be 
activated. 
— When replacing the electronics or the sensor, 
disconnect 
the power supply and move DIP switch 1 to position 1. 
— When replacing the secondary electronics, disconnect 
the power supply and move DIP switch 2 to position 0. 
— The sensor can be replaced when DIP switch 2 is in 
position 1
Protocol mode (DIP switches 3 and 4) 
By default, DIP switch 3 is in position 0. 
— The communications protocol is then selected via the 
integrated LCD indicator, the DTM or Modbus 
communication. 
— In position 1, the communications protocol is selected 
using DIP switch 4 only.
DIP switch 4 is in position 0 by default and is active only if 
DIP switch 4 is in position 1. 
— In position 0, the communications protocol is set to 
“Operate/Modbus”. This setting is intended for standard 
operation as a Modbus device. 
— In position 1, “Configure/HART-RS485,” a DTM is 
needed for the parameterization of the device. 
Communication with a Modbus master is not possible in 
this setting.

DIP switch  Function
The secondary electronics is located behind the front 
housing cover. The LCD indicator may have to be removed 
to provide access to the DIP switches. 
The DIP switches are used to make settings if an LCD 
display is not present. 
The interface for the LCD indicator is also used as the 
service port for device configuration.
