Suggested comprehensive, fully remote proof-test with AMS
Device Manager and handheld communicator
The suggested proof-test described below will detect 85% of possible DU failures in the
Rosemount 5300 Level Transmitters.
Procedure
1. Bypass the safety function and take appropriate action to avoid a false trip.
2. Disable write protection in device (if enabled).
a) Select Configure → Manual Setup → Device Setup → Security.
b) Click Write Protect and follow the instructions.
3. Using Loop Test, enter current value (mA) representing high alarm current. Verify
that analog output current is correct using the reference meter.
a) Select Configure → Manual Setup → Device Setup → Analog Output.
b) Click Loop Test and select Other.
c) Enter current value representing high alarm current.
d) Verify that analog output current is correct.
e) Click Abort to end loop test.
4. Using Loop Test, enter current value (mA) representing low alarm current. Verify
that analog output current is correct using the reference meter.
a) Select Configure → Manual Setup → Device Setup → Analog Output.
b) Click Loop Test and select Other.
c) Enter current value representing low alarm current.
d) Verify that analog output current is correct.
e) Click Abort to end loop test.
5. Enable write protection.
a) Select Configure → Manual Setup → Device Setup → Security.
b) Click Write Protect and follow the instructions.
6. Perform a one-point level measurement verification of the device. Verify the current
level measurement with an independent measurement such as the BPCS level-
sensor or a manual reading.
7. Remove the bypass and otherwise restore normal operation.
