Security Jumper (Write Protect)
Local Zero and Span
(Local Keys) Software
Lock Out
1.Security Jumper: prevents all writes to transmitter configuration.
2.Local Keys (Local Zero and Span) Software Lock Out: prevents changes to transmitter range points via local zero and span adjustment keys. With local keys security enabled, changes to configuration are possible via HART.
3.Physical Removal of Local Keys (Local Zero and Span) Magnetic Buttons: removes ability to use local keys to make transmitter range point adjustments. With local keys security enabled, changes to configuration are possible via HART.
NOTE
If the security jumper is not installed, the transmitter will continue to operate in the security OFF configuration.
You can prevent changes to the transmitter configuration data with the write protection jumper. Security is controlled by the security (write protect) jumper located on the electronics board or meter face. Position the jumper on the transmitter circuit board in the “ON” position to prevent accidental or deliberate change of configuration data.
If the transmitter write protection jumper is in the “ON” position, the transmitter will not accept any “writes” to its memory. Configuration changes, such as digital trim and reranging, cannot take place when the transmitter security is on.
To enable this feature, see “Local Span and Zero Control (Local Keys)” in Section 2.
Physical Removal of
Local Zero and Span
(Local Keys)
CONFIGURING TRANSMITTER ALARM AND SECURITY JUMPER PROCEDURE
To remove the magnetic buttons used to activate the local zero and span, use a small slotted head screwdriver and pry off the small, plastic cap located under the approval tag. Remove button assemblies and discard.
To reposition the jumpers, follow the procedure described below.
1.If the transmitter is installed, secure the loop and remove power.
2. Remove the housing cover opposite the field terminal side. Do not remove the transmitter covers in explosive atmospheres when the circuit is alive.
3.Reposition the jumpers as desired.
