IQT actuators include an IrDA
®
(Infrared
Data Association) interface as standard,
allowing non-intrusive diagnostics,
analysis and configuration.
IQ Insight software tool for PC and IQ
Pocket Insight for PDA (Personal Digital
Assistant) have been developed to
enable the actuator configuration and
onboard datalogger to be reconfigured
and analysed. A PC running IQ Insight
software or PDA running IQ Pocket
Insight can be used to interrogate the
actuator via non-intrusive infra red IrDA
communication. Visit www.rotork.com
for information.
Alternatively, the intrinsically safe
Rotork Setting Tool Pro allows the
user to extract and store IQT actuator
configuration and datalogger files
within the Tool. Stored files can be
uploaded over an IrDA –USB interface
to a PC running Rotork IQ Insight
where they can be viewed, analysed
and stored in a safe, clean environment.
Using the Setting Tool Pro, actuator set
up can be configured on the PC, stored
in the tool, transported to the actuator
and uploaded. The tool can transfer
the same configuration to multiple
actuators where actuator setup is the
same. Refer to page 70.
To enable communication with IQ
Insight the actuator IrDA interface
must be enabled.
The default setting for IQT IrDA is [On],
enabling IrDA.
To disable IrDA and prevent IrDA access,
use the + or – key. The display will
change to [OF].
PRESS THE KEY.
The displayed option will flash (stored)
indicating it has been set.
IQ Insight and IQ Pocket Insight
software are available free of charge
from the Rotork web site,
www.rotork.com.
A kit is available from Rotork, which
includes an IrDA-USB adapter and
drivers for connection to a PC. The Kit
also includes IQ Insight software. PDA
communication is via the internal IrDA port.
The use of a notebook PC
or PDA with actuators located in
hazardous areas will be subject
to local regulations. It is the
responsibility of the user to seek
guidance and permission.
The Rotork Setting Tool and Setting
Tool Pro are certified Intrinsically
Safe (IS) and therefore can be used
in defined hazardous areas (refer to
page 12 and 13).
