7.1 Overview of operating options
7.1.1 Operation using Endress+Hauser operating program
The FieldCare operating program is an Endress+Hauser plant asset management tool
based on FDT technology. With FieldCare, you can configure all Endress+Hauser devices as
well as devices from other manufacturers that support the FDT standard.

FieldCare supports the following functions:
• Configuration of transmitters in online/offline mode
• Loading and saving device data (upload/download)
• Documentation of the measuring point
Connection options:
• HART via Commubox FXA195 and the USB port of a computer
• HART via FXA520 Fieldgate
• Further information on FieldCare and software download can be found on the
internet (www.de.endress.com ® Downloads ® Text Search: FieldCare).
• Connecting the Commubox FXA195
• As not all internal device dependencies can be mapped in offline operation, the
consistency of the parameters must be checked once again before they are
transmitted to the device.
