Purpose of this documentation
This manual contains a description of all device parameters and is aimed at persons
configuring the device. Some parameters are only available for devices using specific
communications systems (for example HART or Modbus), and some parameters are not
available in the current version. This is mentioned in the relevant chapter/subchapter titles.
The default settings and the setting ranges are listed in tables for each parameter.
Furthermore, the relation, if any, between parameters is described.
As of chapter 3, Setup (Page 23), the chapter and subchapter numbers equal the parameter
numbers in the HMI structure.
For parameters with access level other than User (for example Read only or Expert), the
access level is stated in parenthesis after the parameter name.
1.3
Quick start wizards
The device offers a set of wizards which will guide you through configuration of parameters
essential for your application. The quick commissioning wizards are described in the
Commissioning chapter of the device Operating Instructions.
