8. OPERATION VIA HART COMMUNICATOR

NOTE

Data changed with the HART Communicator is sent to the AXFA11 by pressing

SEND (F2) of the HART Communicator.

8.3.3Checking for Problems

The self-diagnostic function of the AXFA11 is explained in Section 6.5 “Alarm Functions” By using the HART Communicator, it is also possible to carry out this function in the “Test/Status” parameter. Test for each error.

* Open the “Test/Status” setting display.

8.3.4Setting Parameters

As mentioned in Section 5.2.2 “Setting Mode,” the AXFA11’s parameters are divided into three types:

i.Selection type

ii.Numeric type

iii.Alphanumeric type

This section describes how to set these parameters using a HART communicator.

NOTE

All three parameters must be set to obtain a correct signal.

Nominal size, flow rate span and meter factor must be set.

8.3.4.1Example of Setting Selection-Type Data: Base Flow Unit

This example describes the setting of the flow rate units for the selection-type parameter “Base Flow Unit” from m3 to l (Liter).

Open the “Base Flow Unit” setting display.
