Field Communicator
You can verify the status of the CSI 9420 and configure it using a Field Communicator.
Table Table 4-2 shows the fast key sequences you can use to configure and connect the CSI
9420 to a network. See the Section 2.2 and Section 2.2.1 for more information on the Field
Communicator menu trees.
Note
HART Wireless transmitter communication requires a CSI 9420 Device Descriptor file (DD). The DD is
included on the DVD that came with the device. Refer to the Field Communicator User's Manual for
more details on DDs or go to
http://www2.emersonprocess.com/en-US/brands/Field-Communicator/Pages/SysSoftDDs.aspx for
instructions on adding a DD for CSI 9420.

Note
The CSI 9420 does not publish any data to the gateway while a Field Communicator or HART modem
is attached to it. After removing the leads from the Field Communicator/HART modem, the CSI 9420
senses that this connection has been removed and resumes publishing data to the gateway;
however, this process can take several minutes. Pressing the "CONFIG" button on the local operator
interface (when the CSI 9420 is not already engaged in performing another task) forces the CSI 9420
to switch operating modes.

From the Smart Wireless Gateway web server, navigate to the Explorer page. This page
shows if the device has joined the network and if it is communicating properly.
