1.6 Communication tools
Most of the procedures described in this manual require the use of a communication tool. Table 1-2
lists the communication tools that can be used, with their functionality and requirements.
Note: You can use either ProLink II, the EDD, or PROFIBUS bus parameters for transmitter setup
and maintenance. It is not necessary to have more than one of these methods available.
The EDD and the GSD can be downloaded from the Micro Motion web site:
www.micromotion.com.
In this manual:
• Basic information on using the transmitter’s user interface and display is provided in
Chapter 3.
• Basic information on using ProLink II or Pocket ProLink, and connecting ProLink II or
Pocket ProLink to your transmitter, is provided in Chapter 4. For more information, see the
ProLink II or Pocket ProLink manual, available on the Micro Motion web site
(www.micromotion.com).
• Basic information on using a PROFIBUS host is provided in Chapter 5.
1.7 Planning the configuration
Refer to the configuration overview flowchart in Figure 1-1 to plan transmitter configuration. In
general, perform configuration steps in the order shown here.
Note: Depending on your installation and application, some configuration tasks may be optional.
Note: This manual provides information on topics that are not included in the configuration overview
flowchart, e.g.: using the transmitter, troubleshooting, and calibration procedures. Be sure to review
these topics as required.
