Using the Transmitter User Interface

3.1Overview

This chapter describes the user interface of the Model 2400S DN transmitter. The following topics are discussed:

•Transmitters without or with display – see Section 3.2

•Removing and replacing the transmitter housing cover – see Section 3.3

•Using the Scroll and Select optical switches – see Section 3.4

•Using the display – see Section 3.5

3.2User interface without or with display

The user interface of the Model 2400S DN transmitter depends on whether it was ordered with or without a display:

•If ordered without a display, there is no LCD panel on the user interface. The user interface provides the following features and functions:

-Three LEDs: a status LED, a module LED, and a network LED

-Digital communications hardware switches, used to set the DeviceNet node address and baud rate

-Service port clips

-Zero button

For all other functions, either ProLink II or a customer-supplied DeviceNet tool is required.

•If ordered with a display, no zero button is provided (you must zero the transmitter with the display menu, ProLink II, or a DeviceNet tool) and the following features are added:

-An LCD panel, which displays process variable data and also provides access to the off-line menu for basic configuration and management. Optical switches are provided for LCD control.

-An IrDA port which provides wireless access to the service port

Note: The off-line menu does not provide access to all transmitter functionality; for access to all transmitter functionality, either ProLink II or a DeviceNet tool must be used.

Figures 3-1and 3-2show the user interface of the Model 2400S DN transmitter without and with a display. In both illustrations, the transmitter housing cover has been removed.
