4. Click Connect . The software will attempt to make the connection.
5. If an error message appears:
a. Swap the leads between the two service port clips and try again.
b. Ensure that you are using the correct COM port.
c. Check all the wiring between the PC and the transmitter.
d. Verify the RS-485 to RS-232 signal converter.
WARNING
Removing the transmitter housing cover in a hazardous area can cause an
explosion.
Because the transmitter housing cover must be removed to connect to the service
port clips, the service port clips should be used only for temporary connections,
e.g., for configuration or troubleshooting purposes.
When the transmitter is in an explosive atmosphere, use a different method to
connect to your transmitter.
