The Level Gauge can be taken into operation either via the HART
®
Communicator or via a PC and the SIMATIC PDM software.
Basically, the procedure for getting started is nearly identical for
both versions. The difference is only in the interface through which
the Level Gauge communicates.
This chapter describes how to take the Level Gauge into operation
via the HART
®
Communicator.
