Appendix C. FOUNDATION fieldbus Block Information
C.2 REGISTER TRANSDUCER BLOCK
The Register Transducer Block (TB 1200) allows access to Database
registers and Input registers of the Rosemount 2230 Graphical Field Display.
This makes it possible to read a selected set of registers directly by accessing
the memory location.
The Register Transducer Block is only available with advanced service.
Table C-3. Register Transducer
Block parameters
Since the Register Transducer Block allows access to most registers in the 2230, which
includes the registers set by the Methods and Configuration screens in the Level
Transducer Block it should be handled with care and ONLY to be changed by trained and
certified service personnel, or as guided by Emerson Process Management/Rosemount
Tank Gauging support personnel.

Number Parameter Description
1 ST_REV The revision level of the static data associated
with the function block. The revision value
increments each time a static parameter value in
the block is changed.
2 TAG_DESC The user description of the intended application
of the block.
3 STRATEGY The strategy field can be used to identify
grouping of blocks. This data is not checked or
processed by the block.
4 ALERT_KEY The identification number of the plant unit. This
information may be used in the host for sorting
alarms, etc.
5 MODE_BLK The actual, target, permitted, and normal modes
of the block.
Target: The mode to “go to”
Actual: The mode the “block is currently in”
Permitted: Allowed modes that target may take
on
Normal: Most common mode for target
6 BLOCK_ERR This parameter reflects the error status
associated with the hardware or software
components associated with a block. It is a bit
string, so that multiple errors may be shown.
7 UPDATE_EVT This alert is generated by any change to the
static data
8 BLOCK_ALM The 2230 transducer block does not support
update of BLOCK_ALM information, and it does
not publish BLOCK_ALM on segment/FF bus.
9 TRANSDUCER_DIRECTORY Directory that specifies the number and starting
indices of the transducers in the transducer
block.
10 TRANSDUCER_TYPE Identifies the transducer.
11 XD_ERROR A transducer block alarm sub code.
