5.6.10 Checklist for commissioning
The following checklist refers to the configuration via the NI-Fieldbus configurator. In general, the
operation is rather similar for other network design tools.
1. Configure the network and integrate the device.
– Identify the device by means of the device ID and serial number.
– If appropriate, assign a new PD_TAG.
2. Configure the Resource block.
– Check the position of the hardware switch in WRITE_LOCK
– If "locked" is displayed, change the position of the DIP-switch.
– If appropriate, change the block tag (right-hand click on tree).
– Set MODE_BLK_TARGET to Out-of-Service.
– Reset the device to factory values by using the function RESTART => Defaults
(this function may also be available with a right-hand click on the device name)
– If appropriate, assign a new tag description (TAG_DESC).
– Set MODE_BLK_TARGET to Auto.
3. Configure the Transducer block, Diagnostic block and Display block.
– If appropriate, change the block tag (right-hand click on tree).
– Set MODE_BLK_TARGET to Out-of-Service.
– If appropriate, assign a new tag description (TAG_DESC).
– Configure the device as described in the "basic setup" section.
– Set MODE_BLK_TARGET to Auto.
4. Configure the Analog Input block.
– If appropriate, change the block tag (right-hand click on tree).
– Set MODE_BLK_TARGET to Out-of-Service.
– If appropriate, assign a new tag description (TAG_DESC).
– Set Channel to measured value or distance.
– Set L_TYPE to "DIRECT" if the OUT value is to be in technical units e.g. ft to "INDIRECT"
if the OUT value is to be scaled.
– Set the desired output damping in PV_TIME.
– If appropriate, set the advisory and critical alarms.
– Set MODE_BLK_TARGET to Auto.
5. Link the function blocks in the function block editor.
6. Download the configuration (menu configure).
7. If appropriate, check the configuration by using the SIMULATE function.
