5Operation
5.1 Quick operation guide
The user has a number of options for configuring and commissioning the device:
5. Local display (option) → Page 40
The local display enables you to read all important variables directly at the measuring point,
configure device-specific parameters in the field and perform commissioning.
6. Configuration programs → Page 48
The configuration of profile and device-specific parameters is primarily done via the PROFIBUS
interface. You can obtain special configuration and operating programs from various
manufacturers for these purposes.
7. Jumpers/miniature switches for hardware settings → Page 51
You can make the following hardware settings using a jumper or miniature switches on the
I/O board:
• Address mode configuration (select software or hardware addressing)
• Device bus address configuration (for hardware addressing)
• Hardware write protection enabling/disabling
!
Note!
A description of the configuration of the current output (active/passive) and the relay output
(NC contact/NO contact) can be found in the “Hardware settings” section. → Page 54
