6. Access to Further Parameters
Parameters are available under different levels of security
and are defined as Level 1 (Lev1), Level 2 (Lev2), Level 3
(Lev 3) and Configuration (Conf).
Level 1 has no passcode since it contains a minimal set of
parameters generally sufficient to run the process on a daily
basis.
Level 2 allows access to parameters which may used in
commissioning a controller or settings between different
products or batches.
Level 1 and Level 2 operation has been described in the
previous sections.
Level 3 and Configuration level parameters are also
available as follows:-
6.1.1 Level 3
Level 3 makes all operating parameters available and
alterable (if not read only). It is typically used when
commissioning a controller.
Examples of parameters available in Level 3 are:-
Range limits, setting alarm levels, communications address.
The instrument will continue to control when in Levels 1, 2
or 3.
6.1.2 Configuration Level
This level makes available all parameters including the
operation parameters so that there is no need to switch
between configuration and operation levels during
commissioning. It is designed for those who may wish to
change the fundamental characteristics of the instrument to
match the process.
Examples of parameters available in Configuration level
are:-
Input (thermocouple type); Alarm type; Communications
type.
WARNING
Configuration level gives access to a wide range of
parameters which match the controller to the process.
Incorrect configuration could result in damage to the
process being controlled and/or personal injury. It is the
responsibility of the person commissioning the process to
ensure that the configuration is correct.
In configuration level the controller is not controlling the
process or providing alarm indication. Do not select
configuration level on a live process.
