Instrument Mode

There are two instrument modes for the DVC6200; In Service or Out of Service. In Service is the normal operating
mode such that the instrument follows the 4­20 mA control signal. Out of Service is required in some cases to modify
configuration parameters or to run diagnostics.
Note
Some changes that require the instrument to be taken Out Of Service will not take effect until the instrument is placed back In
Service or the instrument is restarted.

Write Protection

There are two Write Protection modes for the DVC6200: Not Protected or Protected. Protected prevents configuration
and calibration changes to the instrument. The default setting is Not Protected. Write Protection can be changed to
Protected remotely. However, to change Write Protection to Not Protected, you must have physical access to the
instrument. The procedure will require you to press a button ( ) on the terminal box as a security measure.
