8. Do Not Use Lead Pencils to Set Dipswitches. To avoid
contamination of switch contacts that can result in circuit
board malfunction, do not use a lead pencil to set a dipswitch.
UNPACKING AND INSPECTION
For general handling:
1. Examine the module to make sure that no damage has
occurred in transit.
2. Notify the nearest Elsag Bailey sales office of any damage.
3. File a claim for any damage with the shipping company
that handled the shipment.
4. Use the original packing material to store the module.
5. Store the module in a place with clean air, free from
extremes of temperature and humidity. Refer to Table 1-5 for
the module specifications.
INSTALLATION IN HAZARDOUS LOCATIONS
One or more intrinsic safety barriers are required when the
FEC module interfaces to transmitters or other external
devices located in a Division I hazardous location (flammable
atmosphere). Refer to the Installing a 4 to 20 mA Transmit-
ter in a Hazardous Location application guide (Table 1-2) to
determine the intrinsic safety barrier requirements for your
application.
CONTROLLER MODULE (MFP/MFC) FIRMWARE REQUIREMENTS
Full FEC functionality requires the use of enhanced versions of
function codes 132 and 133. The module firmware revision lev-
els listed in Table 3-1 support the enhanced function codes.
Table 3-1. Firmware Revision
Level Requirements
Controlling Module Revision
IMMFC03 L.1
IMMFC04 F.1
IMMFC05 E.1
IMMFP01/02 E.1
IMMFP03/03B E.1
NOTES:
1. Firmware revision levels higher than those listed
also support the enhanced function codes.
2. Not all transmitters are supported by all firmware
revisions.
