Rosemount 5300/5400 Series

INTRODUCTION

The Rosemount 5300 Series and Rosemount 5400 Series transmitters are

 

Modbus compatible measurement devices that support communication with a

 

Remote Terminal Unit (RTU) using a subset of read, write, and diagnostic

 

commands used by most Modbus compatible host controllers. The

 

transmitters also support communication through Levelmaster and Modbus

 

ASCII protocols.

 

The HART® to Modbus Converter (HMC) module is located inside the

 

Rosemount 5300 and Rosemount 5400 transmitter enclosure and provides

 

power to and communicates with the transmitter through a HART interface.

During normal operation, the HMC “mirrors” the contents of process variables from the 5300/5400 transmitter to the Modbus registers. To configure the 5300/5400 transmitter, it is possible to connect a configuration tool to the HMC. See “Transmitter Configuration” on page 1-13for more information.

WORKFLOW

Overview of workflow for commissioning a Rosemount 5300 or a Rosemount

 

5400 transmitter with Modbus protocol:

 

1.

Mount the transmitter on the tank.

 

2.

Connect the power and communication wires.

 

3.

Establish HART communication with the transmitter through Rosemount

 

 

Radar Master, or a Field Communicator. This is done by:

 

• Connecting to the HART terminals, or

 

• Connecting to the MA/MB terminals (tunneling mode)

 

4.

Configure the transmitter.

 

5.

Configure the Modbus communication.

 

6.

Configure Modbus host.

 

7.

Verify output values as reported by the transmitter.
