5. BASIC OPERATING PROCEDURES

The modification of data settings from the display unit can be carried out using
the three setting switches (infra-red switches) - namely, the , , and

switches. The infra-red switches enable the user to set parameters without opening
the cover. This chapter will provide a description of basic data configuration and the
methods to be used with the three setting switches. The RXFA14 can also be oper-
ated using a handheld Brain Terminal (BT200) or a HART Communicator. (Please
refer to Chapter 7 for operation via Brain Terminal and Chapter 8 for operation via
HART Communicator.)
For FOUNDATION Fieldbus protocol, please refer to IM 01E20F02-01E.

For PROFIBUS PA protocol, please refer to IM 01E20F12-01E.
WARNING
Be sure to set parameters as “Protect” on the write protect function after finish of
parameter setting work.
Under extremely rare case, the infra-red switches may respond unexpectedly in
such conditions as sticking ball of water or extraneous substances on the surface
of display panel glass according to the principle of infra-red switch operation.
Its probability rises in such cases as sticking rain water by storm or other similar
situation and washing up work near flowmeter installation place.
Either to illuminate or stop illuminating the infra-red switches by the flashlight may
cause the mis-reaction.
Refer to “Menu P: Parameter Protection Items” and section “10.2.2” how to use the
write protect function in detail.
IMPORTANT
Operate the display unit under the condition where direct sunlight, etc.... do not
shine to the setting switches directly when the parameter setting operation is
carried out.
NOTE
(1) Always use the setting switches with the cover of the RXFA14 or the RXF
integral flowmeter closed.
(2) Use these switches with them covered by the glass window.
(3) If dirt, dust or other substances surfaces on the display panel glass, wipe
them clean with a soft dry cloth.
(4) The operation with dirty gloves may cause a switch response error.

8. Operation via Hart Communicator
NOTE
This chapter describes the RXFA14 as an example. The same attention must be paid to the RXF inte-
gral flowmeter. Please note that commands and comments displayed on HART interface products will be
refered to as AXF... . The device description (DD) of AXF is identical to RXF. Please select from HART
interface model AXF for usage with model RXF.
Note: HART is a registered trademark of the HART Communication Foundation.
8.1 Matching of instrument (RXFA14) DD and HART

Configuration Tool’s DD
Before using the HART Configuration Tool (such as FieldMate), confirm that the DD (Device Description) of
the RXFA14 is installed in the Configuration Tool before using.
About the DD, use the device type, device revision and DD Revision shown in follows.
Model Name DTM Name Device Type Device
Revision
RXFA14 RXFA14 RXFA14 2
V1. 1 (0x0052)
T0801.EPS
The DD revisions for RXFA14 and Configuration Tool’s can confirm in accordance with the following steps.
If the correct DD is not installed in the HART Configuration Tool, download them from the official HART pro-
gramming sites, otherwise, contact the respective vendors of the Configuration Tool for its upgrade informa-
tion.
1. Confirmation of the device revision for RXFA14
(1) Connect the Configuration Tool to the RXFA14. The device revision can be checked as follows.
DD Device Setup → Review → Review4

→ Fld dev rev
DTM Configuration → HART → Fld dev rev
T0802.EPS
2. Confirmation of the device revision for the HART Configuration Tool

(1)Turn on the power of the Configuration Tool under the standalone condition.
(2) Confirm the installed DD revision in accordance with the procedure of the Configuration Tool. Refer
to its manual how to confirm it in detail.
The first 2 digits of the DD file are expressed the device revision, and its last 2 digits are expressed
the DD revision.

8.2 Interconnection between RXFA14 and HART

Configuration Tool
The HART Configuration Tool can interface with the RXFA14 from the control room,
the RXFA14 site, or any other wiring termination point in the loop, provided there
is a minimum load resistance of 250 W between the connection and the receiving
instrument. To communicate, it must be connected in parallel with the RXFA14, and
the connections must be non-polarized. Figure 8.2.1 illustrates the wiring connec-
tions for a direct interface at the RXFA14 site. The HART Configuration Tool can be
used for remote access from any terminal strip as well.

NOTE
When the same polling address is assigned for

two or more field devices in multidrop mode,
communication with these field devices is dis-
abled.
(3) Communication when set in the multidrop

mode
1. The HART configuration tool searches a
field device that is set in the multidrop mode
when the HART configuration tool is turned
on.
When the HART configuration tool is con-
nected to the field device, the polling ad-
dress and the tag will be displayed.
2. Select the field device, and then communi-
cation with it is possible. The communication
speed is slow in this case.
3. To communicate with another field device,
turn off the power once and then turn it
back on, or call up “Online” menu, and
select “Online.” The polling address and
the tag will appear. Select the field device.
(4) Release of the multidrop mode
Call up the “Poll addr” display, and set the ad-
dress to “0.”

9. ACTUAL OPERATION
9. ACTUAL OPERATION
After you have installed the flowtube into the
process piping, wired the input/output terminals,
set up the required parameters, and performed
a pre-operation zero adjustment, the magnetic
flowmeter should output an accurate flow signal
from its terminals as soon as flow of the fluid to
be measured begins. This section describes zero
adjustment and the corresponding procedures.
For FOUNDATION Fieldbus protocol, please refer
to IM 01R21F02-01E.
9.1 Pre-operation Zero Ad-

justment
Zero adjustment is carried out to ensure that the
output for zero flow is 0 % (i.e., 4 mA). Although
adjustment to zero is performed at the manufac-
turing plant prior to shipment, this procedure must
be carried out once again following the installation
of piping in order to match the magnetic flowmeter
to its operating conditions.
This section describes the zero adjustment proce-
dure using display unit switches from the convert-
er and using the external status input; accordingly,
one of these methods should be selected and
implemented.
IMPORTANT
• Zero adjustment should be carried out before

actual operation. Note that setting and update
functions cannot be carried out during this pro-
cedure (i.e., for approximately 30 seconds).
• Zero adjustment should only be carried out
when the flowtube has been filled with fluid and
the fluid velocity is completely zero by closing
the valve.
• Each time that the fluid being measured is
changed, it will be necessary for zero adjust-
ment to be carried out for the new fluid.
9. ACTUAL OPERATION
9.1.1 Zero Adjustment Using the infra red Switches

This section describes the procedure for zero adjustment using the display unit
switches. (For more details regarding setting methods using these switches, refer to
Chapter 5: Basic Operating Procedures.)
The parameters for zero adjustment are B50/M10: Auto Zero Exe (and either of
these can be used to carry out this procedure). For more details regarding these
parameters, refer to Chapter 6: Parameter Description. The parameter M10: Auto
Zero Exe will be used in the following description.

9.1.2 Zero Adjustment via External Status Input

This section describes the procedure for zero adjustment via external status input.
(For more details regarding external status input, refer to Chapter 6: Parameter
Description.)
CAUTION
In certain cases where the multiple range function is being used with other status
inputs, it may not be possible to perform settings for automatic zero adjustment.
For more details, refer to the description of multiple ranges from Chapter 6: Pa-
rameter Description.
In order to carry out zero adjustment via external status input, it will be necessary
to set “Ext Auto Zero (I)” using F21: DIO Function. The following describes the
setting procedure.

• The amplifier assembly contains sensitive parts
that may be damaged by static electricity.
Excercise care so as not to directly touch the
electronic parts or circuit patterns on the board,
for example, by preventing static electrification
by using grounded wrist straps when handing
the assembly. Also take precautions such as
placing a removed amplifier assembly into a
bag with an antistatic coating.

10.2.1 Setting of Burnout Switch

The burnout function sets the direction of current
output in situations where the CPU has become
damaged. Upon shipment from the manufacturing
plant, the burnout direction is set to High (i.e., 25
mA); however, in cases where the optional code /
C1 has been specified, the output direction will be
set to Low (i.e., 0 mA).
Modification of the burnout direction must be carried

out using the setting switch from the amplifier’s
CPU board (i.e., Switch 1) (See Figure 10.2.1).
