Using the Transmitter User Interface

3.5Using the display

Note: This section applies only to transmitters with a display.

The display can be used to view process variable data or to access the transmitter menus for configuration or maintenance.

3.5.1Display language

The display can be configured for the following languages:

•English

•French

•Spanish

•German

Due to software and hardware restrictions, some English words and terms may appear in the non-English display menus. For a list of the codes and abbreviations used on the display, see Appendix D.

For information on configuring the display language, see Section 8.9.

In this manual, English is used as the display language.

3.5.2Viewing process variables

In ordinary use, the Process variable line on the LCD panel shows the configured display variables, and the Units of measure line shows the measurement unit for that process variable.

•See Section 8.9.5 for information on configuring the display variables.

•See Appendix D for information on the codes and abbreviations used for display variables.

If more than one line is required to describe the display variable, the Units of measure line alternates between the measurement unit and the additional description. For example, if the LCD panel is displaying a mass inventory value, the Units of measure line alternates between the measurement unit (for example, G) and the name of the inventory (for example, MASSI).

Auto Scroll may or may not be enabled:

•If Auto Scroll is enabled, each configured display variable will be shown for the number of seconds specified for Scroll Rate.

•Whether Auto Scroll is enabled or not, the operator can manually scroll through the configured display variables by activating Scroll.

For more information on using the display to view process variables or manage totalizers and inventories, see Chapter 7.
