F.1 Over view
The Register Transducer Block allows access to Database registers and Input registers of the
Rosemount 5400 transmitter. This makes it possible to read a selected set of registers directly
by accessing the memory location.
The Register Transducer Block is only available with advanced service.
F.1.1 Register access transducer block parameters
Table F-1. Register Access Transducer Block Parameters
Since this Register Transducer Block allows access to most registers in the transmitter,
which includes the registers set by the Methods and Configuration screens, in the Level
Transducer Block (see Appendix E: Level Transducer Block) it should be handled with care
and ONLY to be changed by trained and certified service personnel, or as guided by
Emerson Process Management, Rosemount Business Unit support personnel.

the hardware or software components associated with a
block. It is a bit string, so that multiple errors may be
shown.
