6 Setup
6.1 Operation
There are no adjustment elements on VEGAT-
RENN 149A Ex. Via the HART communication
sockets in the front, a parameter adjustment of
the connected HART sensors can be carried
out without interrupting the measuring circuit.
The resistor (250 Ω) required for this purpose
is already integrated in VEGATRENN 149A
Ex (only in case of connection of O+H). The
adjustment is carried out via a Windows PC with
a parameter adjustment software such as e.g.
PACTware and respective DTM.
6.2 Indication of the function
The yellow LED in the front plate of VEGAT-
RENN 149A Ex lights as soon as a signal condi-
tioning instrument is connected to the output.

7 Maintenance and fault
rectification
7.1 Maintenance
If the instrument is used properly, no special
maintenance is required in normal operation.
7.2 Rectify faults
Failure reasons
A maximum of reliability is ensured. Neverthel-
ess, faults can occur during operation. These
may be caused by the following, e.g.:
•
Measured value from sensor not correct
•
Voltage supply
•
Interference on the cables
Fault rectification
The first measure to be taken is to check the
input/output signal as well as the power supply.
In many cases, the causes can be determined
and faults can be quickly rectified.
