5.6  BRAIN Conguration Tool
The connection of the BRAIN conguration tool 
(BRAIN TERMINAL (BT200) or FieldMate (Versatile 
Device Management Wizard)) is shown as below. 
Read the user’s manual of BT200 (IM 01C00A11-01E) 
for the operation, and the user’s manual of BRAIN 
communication type as listed in Table 1.1 for the detailed 
parameter setting via BRAIN communication.
The communication signal is superimposed onto the 4 to 
20 mA DC analog signal to be transmitted. The BRAIN 
conguration tool can interface with this device from 
the control room, this device site, or any other wiring 
termination point in the loop, provided there is a minimum 
load resistance of 250 Ω between the connection and the 
receiving product.
To communicate, it must be connected in parallel with this 
device, and the connections must be non-polarized. See 
Figure 5.6.

IMPORTANT
Communication signal is superimposed on analog 
output signal. It is recommended to set a low-pass 
lter (approximately 0.1s) to the receiver in order to 
reduce the output effect from communication 
signal. Before online-communication, conrm that 
communication signal does not give effect on the 
upper system.
IMPORTANT
Restrictions exist with regard to the distance over 
which communication is possible. Read the general 
specications as listed in Table 1.1.
For explosion protection type, the conguration tool 
should be connected at the safe site of “no explosive 
atmosphere”.
5.7  HART Conguration Tool
The connection of the HART conguration tool 
(FieldMate (Versatile Device Management Wizard)) 
is shown as below. Read the user’s manual of HART 
communication type as listed in Table 1.1 for the 
detailed parameter setting via HART communication.
NOTE
•  For more details regarding the operations of the 
HART conguration tool, read the manual of HART 
conguration tool.
•  When using FieldMate, be sure that the revision is 
R3.02.00 or later.
NOTE
Perameters on HART conguration tool are displayed 
in English only. Even if any language other than 
English is selected as “display language” from display 
panel, parameters are displayed in English on HART 
conguration tool.
5.7.1  Connections with HART Congura-
tion Tool
The HART conguration tool can interface with this 
device from the control room, this device site, or any 
other wiring termination point in the loop, provided there 
is a minimum load resistance of 230 Ω between the 
connection and the receiving product. To communicate, 
it must be connected in parallel with this device, and the 
connections must be non-polarized.
