The HART menu in chapter 7.4 shows the configuration of the online menu, which is needed for the opera-
tion with HART communicator. Select ´Device Setup´ to call up the desired item as follows:
There are two choices to select the desired menu item:
1. Use the ↓ or ↑ key to select the desired item, and then press the → key.
2. Press the number key displayed for the desired item.
To return to the previous display, press the ← key
Entering, setting and sending data:
The data, which is input with the keys is set in the HART-communicator by pressing

ENTEr. Then, by

pressing

SENd, the data is sent to RCCT_F3. Note that the data is not sent to ROTAMASS if SENd is not

pressed. All the data set with the HART-communicator is held in memory unless power is turned off, so all
data can be send to RCCT_F3 in one lot.

IMPORTANT

Parameter setting on the display with the infrared keys is prohibited during HART communication.

IMPORTANT

Do not turn power off just after HART-Communicator settings (sending) have been made. If ROTAMASS
is turned off less than 30 seconds after parameters have been set, the set data will not be stored and the
data returns to previous settings.
