8.6 Methods
The FOUNDATION Fieldbus Specification includes the use of methods to make device
operation easier. A method is a sequence of interactive steps to be carried out in the specified
order so as to configure certain device functions.
The following methods are available for the device:
• Restart
This method is located in the Resource Block and directly prompts the setting of the Device
reset parameter. This resets the device configuration to a defined state.
• ENP Restart
This method is located in the Resource Block and directly prompts the setting of the
parameters of the Electronic Name Plate (ENP).
• Setup
This method is located in the SETUP Transducer Block and allows to set the most important
parameters in this block for device configuration (measuring units, type of tank or vessel,
type of medium, empty and full calibration).
• Linearization
This method is located in the ADV_SETUP Transducer Block and allows to manage the
linearization table by which the measured value is converted into volume, mass or flow.
• Self Check
This method is located in the EXPERT_CONFIG Transducer Block and prompts the device
self check parameters.
