Software compatibility

Replacement transmitters may contain revised software that is not fully compatible with the existing
software. The latest device descriptors (DD) are available with new Field Communicators or they can be
loaded into existing communicators at any Emerson Service Center or via the Easy Upgrade process. For
more information on upgrading a Field Communicator, see

Commissioning

The Rosemount 3144P Transmitter must be configured for certain basic variables to operate. In many
cases, these variables are pre-configured at the factory. Configuration may be required if the variables
need to be changed.
Commissioning consists of testing the transmitter and verifying transmitter configuration data.
transmitters can be commissioned either before or after installation. Commissioning the transmitter on
the bench before installation using a Field Communicator or AMS Device Manager ensures that all
transmitter components are in working order.
For more information on using the Field Communicator with the transmitter, see

Setting the loop to manual

Set the process application loop to manual when sending or requesting data that would disrupt the loop
or change the output of the transmitter. The Field Communicator or AMS Device Manager will prompt to
set the loop to manual, when necessary. Acknowledging the prompt does not set the loop to manual, it
is only a reminder. Setting the loop to manual is a separate operation.
