Starting up/Setting up mode

To prepare the MP85A process controller for a measurement task, the
following requirements must be met and the relevant steps taken:
• You require an MP85A process controller and either the PME Assistant or
INDUSTRYmonitor program.
• The hardware must be set up: Transducer, MP85A process controller, PC
with software (from Section 5.2).
• The software must be installed (from Section 5.3)
To connect the MP85A process controller to a PC, you need:
− for Ethernet operation (Section 5.2.2 ):
• Ethernet crossover cable
− for CAN interface operation:
• CAN adapter (Section 5.2.3 ), either PCAN USB-to-CAN or PCAN card
(PCI or ISA)
The MP98A process controller must be connected to a PC via the Ethernet
cable or the CAN adapter. Once you have launched the software, you can set
up the MP85A process controller with the PME Assistant (Section 5.4).
In order not to invalidate subsequent statistics while in set up mode, the PME
Assistant (menu: Data storage) can be used to temporarily switch off the stat-
istics processing.
TIP:
Detailed instructions are included in the PME Assistant Online Help. To call
the Help, the PME Assistant must be installed. For a quick guide to operating
the measurement system, refer to the FASTpress Suite quick start guide.
