6.3 Commissioning via a configuration program
6.3.1 Sensor installation
For sensor installation, the various configuration and operating programmes (such as
Commuwin II, FieldTool etc.) do not have any “Quick Setup” menus which correspond
to the local operation.
Other methods (see table) are available for determining the relevant values for sensor
distance, wire length, etc. The procedure is illustrated in detail on
Page 87.

1)
Conditions that must be met before determining the values via a PROFIBUS
configuration program (see Page 87):
Transmitter installed (see Page 38)
Transmitter connected to power supply (see Page 48)
PROFIBUS interface has been commissioned (see Page 93)
2)
Conditions that must be met before determining the values via the local display
using the “Sensor” Quick Setup (see Page 82):
Transmitter installed (see Page 38)
Transmitter connected to power supply (see Page 48)
3)
FieldTool is a configuration and service software for flowmeters in the field.
Conditions that must be met before determining the values via the FieldTool:
Transmitter installed (see Page 38)
Transmitter connected to power supply (see Page 48)
“FieldTool” configuration and service software installed on a notebook/PC
Connection made between notebook/PC and device via the FXA 193 service
interface (see Page 49)
4)
Applicator is a software for selecting and configuring flowmeters. The values
required can be determined without having to connect the transmitter
beforehand.
The “Applicator” can be downloaded from the Internet (
www.applicator.com)
or ordered on CD-ROM for installation on a local PC.
