19.2 Installation of the Spare transmitter
For the installation of the Spare transmitter, please refer to chapter Transmitter
installation [} 96].
19.3 Parameter setting
19.3.1 Relevant settings and parameter storage
The SITRANS FC transmitter has four kinds of relevant parameters which must be
Relevant
adjusted to ensure a proper operation of the flowmeter:
settings
▪ System relevant parameters - a device can be identified in one of the three
▪ sensor related parameters (liquid or gas select, mass flow- or volume flow unit,
▪ sensor specific parameters (SK20, KD, fl20)
▪ customer specific parameters (lowcut and URV)
System relevant parameters are stored on the microSD card of the Spare transmitter in

Sensor relevant parameters and sensor specific parameters are available on the
microSD card of the defective transmitter in the file "Factory.PAR".

19.3.2 Setting methods
Configuring the Spare transmitter with the sensor settings always needs a backup file of
the defective transmitter.
▪ If the microSD card from the defective transmitter is available, insert it into the Spare
The factory backup file of the defective transmitter is stored on the microSD in the
directory "SIEMENS" attached to the defect SITRANS FC at delivery time. Please
make sure to use a differing file name in case of coping to microSD of the Spare
transmitter
The method to set up the Spare transmitter properly depends on the following order code
positions of the defective SITRANS FC in comparison to the Spare Transmitter:
