Operation via SIMATIC PDM 6 (HART)

(SITRANS LUT400 compatible with PDM version 6.1)
Features and Functions
SIMATIC PDM is a software package used to commission and maintain SITRANS LUT400
and other process devices. PDM monitors the process values, alarms and status signals of
the device. It allows you to display, compare, adjust, verify, and simulate process device
data; also to set schedules for calibration and maintenance. Please consult the LUT400
online help for details on using SIMATIC PDM. (You can find more information at:
www.siemens.com/simatic-pdm (www.siemens.com/simatic-pdm).)
SIMATIC PDM features four Quick Start Wizards (Level, Volume, Volume-Linearization, and
Flow) to easily configure the SITRANS LUT400. A Pump Control Wizard is also available.
Other features include Echo Profile Utilities, Manual TVT Shaper adjustment, Auto False
Echo Suppression screening, Process Variables monitoring, and Maintenance scheduling.
Parameters are identified by name and organized into function groups. The menu structure
for SIMATIC PDM is almost identical to that of the LCD. See LCD Menu Structure
(Page 308) for a chart. For a complete list of parameters, see Parameter reference (LUI)
(Page 167).
