Proline t-mass 65 MODBUS RS485 Installation Installation Incoming acceptance, transport and storage 3.1.1 Incoming acceptance On receipt of the goods, check the following points: • Check the packaging and the contents for damage. • Check the shipment, make sure nothing is missing and that the scope of supply matches your order.
Installation Proline t-mass 65 MODBUS RS485 Installation conditions Note the following points: • The thermal dispersion principle is very sensitive to low flow rates and disturbed flow conditions. • Observe the recommended inlet and outlet requirements. • Good engineering practice is necessary for the associated pipe work and installation.
Proline t-mass 65 MODBUS RS485 Installation 3.2.3 Orientation The device can generally be installed in any position in the piping. In the case of wet/dirty gases, upward flow is prefered in vertical pipes to minimise condensation/contamination. Where free condensation can occur (e.g. Biogas) the sensor should be orientated to prevent water collecting on or around the transducer.
Installation Proline t-mass 65 MODBUS RS485 3.2.4 Inlet and outlet runs The sensitivity of the thermal dispersion principle to low flow rates means the flowmeter can also be sensitive to internal disturbances in the flowing gas stream (e.g. swirl), especially in the larger pipe diameters ≥...

Flow conditoner (19 hole) for use with flanged sensors This is a special Endress+Hauser version designed specially for use with the t-mass F sensor (Sizes DN 25 to 100 /1" to 4"). The flow conditioner should be fitted immediately upstream of the flanged sensor.
Installation Proline t-mass 65 MODBUS RS485 Vertical alignment It is important that the sensor mounting boss is welded to the pipe or duct such that the sensor is mounted at 90 degrees to the flow direction. Any deviation from this angle in any plane may cause flow disturbances around the measuring point that could cause errors.
Proline t-mass 65 MODBUS RS485 Installation Note! These mounting guidelines assume that a standard mounting boss provided by Endress+Hauser is being used (see Accessories on Page 66). Warning! The following tightening tensions for the compression fitting must be observed: • Locking nut: Hand tight, then 1¼ turns with a wrench •...

Wiring Wiring Warning! When connecting Ex-certified devices, see the notes and diagrams in the Ex-specific supplement to these Operating Instructions. Please do not hesitate to contact your Endress+Hauser representative if you have any questions. Cable specification MODBUS RS485 4.1.1 Cable type In the EIA/TIA-485 standard, two versions (cable type A and B) are specified for the bus line and can be used for all transmission rates.
Wiring Proline t-mass 65 MODBUS RS485 4.1.2 Shielding and grounding When planning the shielding and grounding for a fieldbus system, there are three important points to consider: • Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) • Explosion protection • Safety of the personnel To ensure the optimum electromagnetic compatibility of systems, it is important that the system components and above all the cables, which connect the components, are shielded and that no portion of the system is unshielded.

Operation Proline t-mass 65 MODBUS RS485 Error messages 5.4.1 Type of error Errors that occur during commissioning or measuring are displayed immediately. If two or more system or process errors occur, the error with the highest priority is the one shown on the display.
Proline t-mass 65 MODBUS RS485 Operation MODBUS RS485 communication 5.5.1 MODBUS RS485 technology The MODBUS is an open, standardized fieldbus system which is deployed in the areas of manufacturing automation, process automation and building automation. System architecture The MODBUS RS485 is used to specify the functional characteristics of a serial fieldbus system with which distributed, digital automation systems are networked together.
Page 42
Operation Proline t-mass 65 MODBUS RS485 Master/slave communication A distinction is made between two methods of communication with regard to master/slave communication via MODBUS RS485: • Polling (request-response-transaction) The master sends a request telegram to one slave and waits for the slave's response telegram.
Proline t-mass 65 MODBUS RS485 Operation 5.5.2 MODBUS telegram General The master-slave process is used for data exchange. Only the master can initiate data transmission. Following the prompt, the slave sends the master the necessary data as a response telegram or executes the command requested by the master.
Operation Proline t-mass 65 MODBUS RS485 5.5.3 MODBUS function codes The function code determines which read, write and test operations should be executed by means of the MODBUS protocol. The measuring device supports the following function codes: Function Name in accordance...
Proline t-mass 65 MODBUS RS485 Operation 5.5.4 Maximum number of writes If a nonvolatile device parameter is modified via the MODBUS function codes 06, 16 or 23, this change is saved in the EEPROM of the measuring device. The number of writes to the EEPROM is technically restricted to a maximum of 1 million. Attention must be paid to this limit since, if exceeded, it results in data loss and measuring device failure.
Page 47
Proline t-mass 65 MODBUS RS485 Operation Byte transmission sequence Byte addressing, i.e. the transmission sequence of the bytes, is not specified in the MODBUS specification. For this reason, it is important to coordinate the addressing method between the master and slave during commissioning. This can be configured in the measuring device by means of the “BYTE ORDER”...
Operation Proline t-mass 65 MODBUS RS485 5.5.6 MODBUS error messages If the MODBUS slave detects an error in the request telegram from the master, it sends a reply to the master in the form of an error message consisting of the slave address, function code, exception code and check sum.
Page 49
Proline t-mass 65 MODBUS RS485 Operation Configuration of the scan list During configuration, the MODBUS register addresses of the device parameters to be grouped must be entered in the scan list. The scan list can contain up to 16 entries. Float and Integer-type device parameters with read and write access are supported.
Page 50
Operation Proline t-mass 65 MODBUS RS485 Access to data via MODBUS The MODBUS master uses the register addresses 5051 to 5081 to access the data area of the auto-scan buffer. This data area contains the values of the device parameters defined in the scan list.

The Fieldcheck tester/simulator is used for testing flowmeters in the field. When used in conjunction with the “ToF Tool - Fieldtool Package” software package, test results can be imported into a database, printed and used for official certification. Contact your Endress+Hauser representative for more information.
Operation Proline t-mass 65 MODBUS RS485 Hardware settings 5.7.1 Hardware write protection, switching on and off A jumper on the I/O board provides the means of switching hardware write protection on or off. When the write protection is switched on, it is not possible to write to the device parameters via MODBUS communication.
Proline t-mass 65 MODBUS RS485 Operation 5.7.2 Configuring the device address The device address must always be configured for a MODBUS slave. The valid device addresses are in a range from 1 to 247. In a MODBUS RS485 network, each address can only be assigned once.
Operation Proline t-mass 65 MODBUS RS485 5.7.3 Configuring the terminating resistors It is important to terminate the MODBUS RS485 line correctly at the start and end of the bus segment since impedance mismatch results in reflections on the line which can cause faulty communication transmission.

Proline t-mass 65 MODBUS RS485 Commissioning Adjustment 6.4.1 Zero point adjustment At zero flow conditions, the output of most thermal mass flow devices has a strong dependency on the process pressure. The effect on the true zero point of the device, by the static line pressure, is dependant on the gas type and the application demands and in many cases the use of the low flow cut-off function is adequate to zero the device output.
The zero point adjustment is now reset. Data storage device (HistoROM) At Endress+Hauser, the term HistoROM refers to various types of data storage modules on which process and measuring device data are stored. By plugging and unplugging such modules, device configurations can be duplicated onto other measuring devices to cite just one example.
The compression fitting and bonded seal are available as spare parts. In-situ calibration The t-mass flowmeters are designed to support in-situ calibration using a reference meter signal, thus saving time and cost by reducing the need for factory re-calibration.
