Rosemount 3100 Series
Power Up When the power is turned on, the transmitter takes several seconds to
initialize. The display will run a set-up routine, first illuminating all display
characters, and then showing the software revision number. Finally, a full set
of zeros is displayed while the microprocessor identifies the correct return
echo. After these checks are complete, the display indicates the live
measurement based upon the factory default values in memory.
On a new instrument aimed at a good target, the transmitter calculates a level
reading based upon the default value for the bottom reference.
The duty icon against the letter L on the top plate, and the RL2 icon on The
Rosemount 3102, will be illuminated. The RL1 icon on The 3102 may be
illuminated, depending on the level calculated by the transmitter at this time.
The transmitter is now ready to be set-up with details of the application.
The transmitter may be programmed prior to, or after, installation. All
programmed data is retained in the transmitter memory after the power is
turned off.
Before Programming Important notes to help you program the transmitter:
a) Do not allow rain, or water, to enter the transmitter during programming or
the circuit boards may be damaged.
b) See the instructions below on how to use the push-buttons to navigate
through the programming menu and select or enter application data.
c) Push the buttons firmly, but not too hard, to avoid damaging the circuit
boards. Also, to avoid entering incorrect data, do not push the buttons too
fast.
d) Holding down the green button
↓ scrolls through any option list.
e) Pressing the red button
↵ at any time will return you to the previous level
in the menu.
f) If the red button
↵ is pressed after new data has been entered, the new
data will automatically be saved.
g) The transmitter has a “re-set default values” routine that reloads the
transmitter memory with the factory default values. This will clear the
memory of any previous data entered on site.
