Additional information on the data storage concept
There are different types of data storage units in which device data are stored and used by the device:
Device memory T-DAT S-DAT
Available data • Event history, such as
diagnostic events
• Parameter data record backup
• Device firmware package
• Measured value memory ("Extended
HistoROM" order option)
• Current parameter data record (used by
firmware at run time)
• Maximum indicators (min/max values)
• Totalizer values
• Sensor data: diameter etc.
• Serial number
• User-specific access code (to use the
"Maintenance" user role)
• Calibration data
• Device configuration (e.g. SW options, fixed
I/O or multi I/O)
Storage location Fixed on the user interface board
in the connection compartment
Can be plugged into the user interface
board in the connection compartment
In the sensor plug in the transmitter neck part
Data backup
Automatic
• The most important device data (sensor and transmitter) are automatically saved in the
DAT modules
• If the transmitter or measuring device is replaced: once the T-DAT containing the
previous device data has been exchanged, the new measuring device is ready for
operation again immediately without any errors
• If the sensor is replaced: once the sensor has been replaced, new sensor data are
transferred from the S-DAT in the measuring device and the measuring device is ready
for operation again immediately without any errors
Manual
Additional parameter data record (complete parameter settings) in the integrated device
memory for:
• Data backup function
Backup and subsequent restoration of a device configuration in the device memory
• Data comparison function
Comparison of the current device configuration with the device configuration saved in
the device memory
Data transfer
Manual
Transfer of a device configuration to another device using the export function of the
specific operating tool, e.g. with FieldCare, DeviceCare or Web server: to duplicate the
configuration or to store in an archive (e.g. for backup purposes)
Event list
Automatic
• Chronological display of up to 20 event messages in the events list
• If the Extended HistoROM application package (order option) is enabled: up to 100
event messages are displayed in the events list along with a time stamp, plain text
description and remedial measures
• The events list can be exported and displayed via a variety of interfaces and operating
tools e.g. DeviceCare, FieldCare or Web server
