Rosemount 5400 Series
5-2
OVERVIEW Configuration of a Rosemount 5400 transmitter is normally a simple and
straight-forward task. If the transmitter is pre-configured at the factory
according to ordering specifications in the Configuration Data Sheet, no
further Basic Configuration is required, unless tank conditions have changed.
The 5400 Series supports a set of advanced configuration options that can be
used to handle special tank conditions and applications. For further
information on advanced configuration options, see “Advanced Configuration”
on page C-1.
Basic Configuration
Parameters
The Basic Configuration includes parameters for a standard configuration
which is sufficient in most cases. The Basic Configuration comprises the
following items:
• Measurement Units
• Tank Configuration
- Tank Geometry
- Environment
- Volume
• Analog Output
• Echo Tuning: see page 5-10 for more information on the ATC, and
“Registration of False Echoes” on page 7-7 for more information on
False Echo Registration
Configuration Tools There are several tools available for basic configuration of a 5400 transmitter:
• Rosemount Radar Master (RRM). Note that RRM is required for
advanced configuration features.
See “Basic Configuration Using Rosemount Radar Master” on
page 5-11 for information on using RRM to configure the 5400 Series.
• Rosemount 375 Field Communicator.
See “Configuration Using a 375 Field Communicator” on page 5-21 for
the Field Communicator Menu Tree.
• AMS Suite software.
See “Basic Configuration Using AMS Suite” on page 5-24 for
information on configuring AMS Suite.
RRM is a user-friendly, Windows
®
based software package that includes
waveform plots, off-line/on-line configuration Wizard, logging, and extensive
on-line help.
To communicate with the transmitter using RRM, a MACTek Viator HART
modem (see “Other Accessories” on page A-24) is recommended.
