Instrument Mode
Field Communicator
Hot Key > Instrument Mode (Hot Key‐1)
Configure > Detailed Setup > Mode and Protection > Instrument Mode (1‐2‐1‐1)
To setup and calibrate the instrument, the instrument mode must be Out Of Service.
If the mode is not Out Of Service, select Out Of Service from the Instrument Mode menu and press ENTER.
Configuration Protection
Field Communicator
Hot Key > Protection (Hot Key‐3)
Configure > Detailed Setup > Mode and Protection > Protection (1‐2‐1‐5)
To setup and calibrate the instrument, the protection must be set to None with the Field Communicator. If the
protection is not None, changing the protection requires placing a jumper across the Auxiliary terminals in the terminal
box.
To remove protection:
1. Connect a 4‐20 mA source to the instrument.
2. Connect the Field Communicator to the instrument and turn it on.
3. Press the Hot Key on the Field Communicator and select Protection.
Note
If the Aux Terminal Mode is configured for Auto Calibration, be sure the jumper remains across the auxiliary terminals until the
Field Communicator prompts you to remove it. Removing the jumper too soon will cause the instrument to begin auto calibration.
Auto calibration can be terminated by shorting the Aux Terminals for one second.
WARNING
If the jumper is removed too soon, and auto calibration begins, the valve will move full stroke. To avoid personal injury and
property damage caused by the release of pressure or process fluid, isolate the valve from the process and equalize
pressure on both sides of the valve or bleed off the process fluid.
4. From the Protection menu, select None. When prompted by the Field Communicator, temporarily attach the jumper
to the AUX + and AUX - terminals in the instrument terminal box.
5. Remove the jumper from the AUX terminals when prompted.
