CALIBRATION AND MAINTENANCE

1.Part number from Parts List or from a label on assembly

2.The single number software compatibility code

3.Serial number from the label on the transmitter's nameplate

4.User purchase order number of original order, available from user records

5.New user purchase order number for the assembly to be replaced or spared

6.Reason for return for repair; include system failure symptoms, station failure symptoms, and error codes displayed.

Returns should be packaged in original shipping materials if possible. Otherwise, package item for safe shipment or contact factory for shipping recommendations. Refer to Section 6.9 to obtain a Return Material Authorization number.

IMPORTANT

The electronics module must be placed in a static shielding bag to protect it from electrostatic discharge.

6.8 SOFTWARE COMPATIBILITY

A single number software compatibility code identifies transmitter software revision level. This software controls the transmitter's operating routines and its HART communications with loop connected stations and gateways.

To read the software level of a transmitter (see Section 5 for a detailed procedure):

1.Connect the MXC to the loop. Establish communication with the transmitter and display the On-Line Menu.

2.Press STATUS, then press CONT. Read the model number and software revision level.
