Rosemount 8732
Class 2 Masters There are a number of available PROFIBUS configuration tools. These Class
2 Masters are manufacturer-independent tools for the operation,
configuration, maintenance, and diagnosis of intelligent field devices. Device
descriptor based Class 2 Masters allow 100% configuration capability on the
8732E Profibus PA transmitter.
Class 2 Masters always need to be connected to the DP segment. They
cannot be directly connected to a PA segment.
DIAGNOSTICS Diagnostics are used to verify that the transmitter is functioning properly, to
assist in troubleshooting, to identify potential causes of error messages, and
to verify the health of the transmitter and sensor. All the diagnostic test can be
initiated through the use of a Class 2 Master. Some diagnostics can be
accessed using the LOI.
Rosemount offers several different diagnostic suites providing various
functionality.
Standard diagnostics included with every Rosemount 8732 transmitter are
Empty Pipe detection, Electronics Temperature monitoring, Coil Fault
detection, and various loop and transmitter tests.
Advanced diagnostics suite option one (D01 option) contains advanced
diagnostics for High Process Noise detection and Grounding and Wiring fault
detection.
Advanced diagnostics suite option two (D02 option) contains advanced
diagnostics for the 8714i Meter Verification. This diagnostic is used to verify
the accuracy and performance of the magnetic flow meter installation.
Empty Pipe Detection
Turn the empty pipe diagnostic on or off as required by the application. For
more details on the empty pipe diagnostic, see Appendix C: Diagnostics.
Electronics Temperature Out of Range
Turn the electronics temperature diagnostic on or off as required by the
application. For more details on the electronics temperature diagnostic, see
Appendix C: Diagnostics.
High Process Noise Detection
Turn the high process noise diagnostic on or off as required by the
application. For more details on the high process noise diagnostic, see
Appendix C: Diagnostics.
Grounding / Wiring Fault Detection
Turn the grounding / wiring diagnostic on or off as required by the application.
For more details on the grounding / wiring diagnostic, see Appendix C:
Diagnostics.
