Offline Operation - HBM MP85A Operating Manual

MP85A process controller
NOTE
The device settings remain unchanged if the firmware is updated. However,
we recommend that all settings be saved via the PME Assistant to the PC
before an update.
Simultaneous update of several devices can be selected.
In order not to conflict with the processing of a process (no measurements or
evaluations can be implemented during an update), you can specific from
firmware version 2.22 or higher that the firmware update is only implemented
on the device following manual confirmation (F-Update: Permitted!). If
confirmation does not occur within 15 minutes, no changes are made to the
firmware.

5.7 Offline operation

In offline operation, the PME Assistant can be used without a connected
MP85A process controller to create a device setting (parameter set) and save
it in XML format to PC. The device setting can later be transferred to the
MP85A process controller.
The offline mode is started as follows:
− Open the PME Assistant and select the "Offline" interface.
− Select the required device type from the device list.
− Start the Assistant with the "Start" button.
The device settings can now be made without any connected MP85A process
controllers. In the "Save/Load parameters" menu, the settings can be saved to
PC or existing settings loaded for viewing and further processing.
