F.1 Over view
The MSP400RH and MSP900GH support HART communications, which may be used to program
or interrogate the transmitters from any point on the two-wire loop. This section contains
information on configuring the transmitters using a Field Communicator or a Mobrey MCU900
Series Control Unit.
Mobrey MCU900 Series Control Unit
The product reference manual (IP2030/RM) provides full instructions on installation and
operation of the control unit. There is also a quick installation guide (IP2030/QS). Both of these
product documents are available in the Adobe PDF format, and can be downloaded from the
Mobrey brand pages at www.emersonprocess.com.
A full menu map showing how to access transmitter parameters using the control unit’s menu
system is in Appendix D: Mobrey MCU900 Series. For convenience, the parameter identification
numbers (P*** and D***) are used in parameter headings and descriptions in this appendix.
When using the control unit, use the Enter ( ) key to start editing a configuration parameter
and then use the arrow keys to change the setting. Changes are confirmed by pressing the Enter
key, or abandoned by pressing the Esc key. Commands e.g. Set As Empty are run using the
Enter () key.
Field communicator
For convenience, Field Communicator fast key sequences are labeled “Fast Keys” for each
software function below the appropriate headings. A full menu map showing how to access
transmitter parameters using the Field Communicator is in Appendix E: Field Communicator.
Example software function
When using a Field Communicator, some configuration changes are sent to the transmitter by
pressing “SEND”.
Connect the Field Communicator leads to the transmitter, and turn on the Field Communicator
by pressing the ON/OFF key. The Field Communicator will search for a HART-compatible device
and indicate when the connection is made. If the Field Communicator fails to connect, it
indicates that no device was found. If this occurs, check the lead connections and re-try.
