5.2.1 Basic configuration
The basic configuration includes parameters for a standard configuration which is
sufficient in most cases. The basic configuration comprises the following items:
• Measurement units
• Tank configuration - Tank geometry - Environment - Volume
• Analog output
5.2.2 Echo tuning
Amplitude thresholds can be adjusted in order to handle special situations when, for
example, objects in the tank cause disturbing echoes that are stronger than the surface
echo. A useful function is the Amplitude Threshold Curve (ATC) which lets you filter out
single disturbing echoes. See Amplitude threshold curve for more information.
5.2.3
LCD configuration
It is possible to specify the variables to be presented on the display panel. See also Specify
display panel variables.
5.2.4
Advanced configuration
For some applications, further device specific configuration is needed in addition to the
basic configuration. This may be due to product properties or tank shape. See Advanced
configuration for more information.
5.2.5
Configuration tools
The transmitter can be configured using:
• Rosemount Radar Master (RRM). Note that RRM is recommended for advanced
configuration features. See Basic configuration using Rosemount Radar Master for
information on how to use RRM for configuration of the Rosemount 5300 Level
Transmitter.
• Device Descriptor (DD) based systems, e.g. AMS Device Manager, 475 Field
Communicator, AMS Trex
™
Device Communicator, and DeltaV
™
, or any other EDDL or
enhanced-EDDL host. See Basic configuration using AMS Device Manager and
handheld communicator and Basic configuration using DeltaV (only for FOUNDATION
™
Fieldbus), for information on how to use DDs for configuration of the Rosemount 5300
Level Transmitter.
See Menu tree for AMS Device Manager and handheld communicator menu tree
structure.
RRM is a user-friendly, Windows
™
-based software package including waveform plots, off-
line/on-line configuration Wizard, logging, and extensive on-line help.
To communicate with the transmitter using RRM, a HART
®
modem (part number
03300-7004-0001 or 03300-7004-0002) or a FOUNDATION Fieldbus modem (part number
03095-5108-0001 for PCMCIA) is required. For FOUNDATION Fieldbus communication you
