4.3.10 DE Online Configuration Summary

This concludes the process of configuring an STT850 DE transmitter online. For best operational
results, calibrate the Transmitter according to Section 6, "Calibration" in this document.

4.4 DE Transmitter Offline Configuration

4.4.1 Overview

This section summarizes the features, capabilities, and processes for configuring an STT850
SmartLine Temperature Transmitter set for DE operation offline. Refer to the MC Toolkit User
Manual, 34-ST-25-20, section 5.6, "Offline Configuration" for complete procedural details.
After starting the MC Toolkit application, selecting the Offline button provides access to the
following configuration features:

DE Offline File Management – Open an XML file, select a saved configuration for the
selected device and edit the parameters.

Save to File – Save the parameters back to the file.

Download – Download the current offline configuration to a device after establishing
connection.
The MC Toolkit can process more than one device type or model. For the purposes of this section, the
term device refers to the STT850 SmartLine Temperature Transmitter, and/or one of its model
variants.

4.4.2 DE Offline File Management

Offline configuration allows you to select a basic template, edit its parameter content, and download
it to a Transmitter after establishing communication. Parameter updates can also be saved in a file
without actually downloading to a Transmitter.
The MCT404/202 Toolkit is shipped with the two files: MCToolkit.xml andTEMPLMCT.xml:

The MCToolkit.xml file consists of default configurations for all the supported DE devices. The
available configurations can be updated and saved back to this file.

The TEMPLMCT.XML is a template file. The contents of this template file cannot be edited;
however, the template can be saved under a different file name. The contents of the newly named file
can be edited.
DE offline file management provides general, configuration, and parameter options. General options
provide for communication serial port selection of COM1 through COM8. However, the current
configuration of the Toolkit Pocket PC (PPC) provides only COM1; the other seven serial port
designations are reserved for future expansion.
Offline configuration options provide for confirmation before saving a changed configuration file.
Denying confirmation results in having the changes discarded.
In addition to file saving confirmation, DE offline file management provides access to three
parameter sets for review and editing:

Parameter Set 1 consists of the description of Transmitter according to bus type, device
type, serial and model number, and the manufacturer.
