For explosion protection type, the conguration tool 
should be connected at the safe site of “no explosive 
atmosphere”.
5.7.2  HART Conguration Tool and 
DeviceRevision
IMPORTANT
Protocol revision supported by HART conguration tool 
must be the same protocol revision or later than that of 
the device. If it is not, communication error occurs.
(1) Device Description (DD) and Device Revision
Before using the HART conguration tool, conrm that 
the DD (Device Description) of this device is installed in 
the conguration tool.  
If correct DD is not installed to the conguration tool, 
install a correct DD from the HART ofcial site, otherwise, 
contact the respective vendors of the conguration tool 
for its upgrade information.
The device revision is as follows.
DD Revision AXW4A: 1 or later
AXG1A: 1 or later
Device Type (Transmitter) AXW4A (0x371B) 
AXG1A (0x371C)
Device Revision (Transmitter) AXW4A: 1
AXG1A: 2
•  Conrmation of DD revision
(a) Turn on the power of the conguration tool under 
the standalone condition.
(b) Conrm the device revision from the installed DD 
le name according to the procedure provided for 
the conguration tool.
DD le name is four digits, upper two digits are device 
revision and lower two digits are DD revision.
NOTE
Device revision of DD le is given in hexadecimal.
•  Conrmation of Device revision
Connect the congurator to this device and conrm 
the revision by the following parameter.
HART Communication Menu Path:
Device root menu ► Detailed setup ►
Device information ► HART setup ► Fld dev rev
(2) Device Type Manager (DTM) and Device 
Revision
When conguring the parameters by FieldMate, use the 
DTM (Device Type Manager) of the following table.
DTM Name AXW4A HART7 DTM
AXG1A FDT2.0 HART7 DTM
DTM Revision(*) AXGWA: 5.6.4.0 or later
AXG1A: 5.8.1.0 or later
Device Type (Transmitter) AXW4A (0x371B)
AXG1A(0x371C)
Device Revision (Transmitter) AXW4A: 1
AXG1A: 2
* :  The DTM is included in Yokogawa DTM Library HART 6.5 or 
later.
NOTE
The DTM revision can be conrmed by “DTM setup”. 
Device Files is a Media included in FieldMate. The user 
registration site provides Device Files with the latest 
update programs.
(URL: https://voc.yokogawa.co.jp/PMK/)  
When updating the DTM, following operation by “DTM 
setup” is required.
•  Update DTM catalog
•  Assign corresponding DTM to the device.
For details, read the user’s manual of FieldMate.
5.8  Modbus Conguration Tool
The connection of the Modbus conguration tool is shown 
as below.
Read the user’s manual of Modbus communication type 
as listed in Table 1.1 for the detailed parameter setting via 
Modbus communication.
5.8.1  Connections with Modbus 
Conguration Tool
The Modbus conguration tool is connected to the 
transmitter instead of Modbus host.
RS-485 USB Adaptor is required to connect transmitter 
to PC.
See Figure 5.8.
