Operating the Analyzer

Infrared communications

The infrared connection provides a non-intrusive wireless connection with the instrument and maintains its waterproof integrity when used in conjunction with the optional PIE (Process Instrument Explorer Software).

No need to get access to the back of the analyzer to communicate with the instrument, no need to take your screw driver to wire the communication cable, no wiring mistake possible. You can now duplicate an instrument’s configuration, upload or download a new configuration in a matter of seconds, just by pointing your Pocket PC in the direction of the instrument.

It takes just a few seconds to upload a configuration from an instrument. You can then save the configuration file onto your PC or pocket PC for review, modification or archiving. Furthermore, this software also gives you important maintenance information on the analyzer: instantly, get information on the current operating parameters, digital inputs and alarm status, identify internal or analog input problems.

Question: What if I have several analyzers on the same panel? How can I be sure I am communicating with the correct one?

Answer: The infrared port of the analyzer is normally “off”. You activate the infrared port on a particular analyzer by pressing any key. You can now communicate with the analyzer. If no communications are received for 2 minutes, the port will be shut down again.
