TRANSMITTER USB PORT
The USB port allows the user to interface with the transmitter without
the use of a computer. Information is stored on a USB memory stick
(a SONARstick
TM ) and then transferred to a computer for storage or
transfer. Note: The USB port cannot be used for communications
between the transmitter and a computer; it is for use only with a
memory stick.
An interruption in data output from the transmitter to a data control
system will occur when using some of the functions of the USB port
and memory stick. It is recommend that the process control room be
alerted when using the USB data port.
CAUTION
Loss of transmitter output signal may occur when using USB
port. Contact process control room and advise them the
transmitter may be off line during memory stick operations.
The following table shows the menu structure that becomes available
when using a memory stick inserted in the USB port. Detailed
information for each menu item follows. Navigation through the
menus is accomplished with the transmitter front panel keys.
