Quick Start Guide
When the user exits the “Locate Device” method, the device LCD display
automatically returns to normal operation.
Note
Some hosts do not support “Locate Device” in the DD.
Step 6: Configure
Each FOUNDATION fieldbus host or configuration tool has a different way of
displaying and performing configurations. Some use Device Descriptions (DD) or
DD methods for configuration and to display data consistently across platforms.
There is no requirement that a host or configuration tool support these features.
Use the following block examples to do basic configuration to the transmitter. For
more advanced configurations see the 3051 reference manual (document
number 00809-0100-4774, Rev. CA or newer).
Note
DeltaV users should use DeltaV Explorer for the Resource and Transducer blocks and Control
Studio for the Function Blocks.
Configure the AI block
If your configuration tool supports Dashboard DD's or DTM's you may use either
guided setup or manual setup. If your configuration tools don't support
Dashboard DD's or DTM's, use manual setup. Navigation instructions for each
step are provided below. In addition the screens used for each step are shown in
Figure 11, Basic Configuration Menu Tree.
