3. Find a free tank position (2460 Tank 1, 2, 3...) for the device to be configured.
4. In the Source field, choose the appropriate Whessoe device type (Whessoe WM550, WM660).
5. Select the Field Port that the device is connected to. Ensure that the port is equipped with a Digitial
Control Loop modem. In the standard configuration there are six field bus ports available for the
Rosemount 2460 System Hub. See “Connecting to a Rosemount 2460 System Hub” on page 30 for
more information.
6. Enter the address of the gauge into the Level Device Address field. Each field device has its own
unique address in the range 00-99.
7. The Temp Device Address field can not be edited. The address is automatically set to the address of
the level device.
8. In the Number of Temp Elements field, enter “0” elements in case only Average Temperature is
required. If you would like to retrieve individual temperature values for each spot element, you have
to enter the total number of connected elements. In case you don’t need to monitor values for
individual temperature elements you should set this parameter to “0” in order to avoid unnecessary
load on the field bus.
9. Select the Auxiliary Inputs that are used for the device. Vapor Pressure (VP), Liquid Pressure (LP), and
Vapor Temperature can be configured for Whessoe devices. See Table E-1 on page 183 for a list of
available Auxiliary Inputs.
10.See “Advanced Whessoe configuration” on page 184 for advanced options for the Whessoe 550/660.
