9.1 DT85 control and display terminal
The DT85 terminal can be used to visualize the process in situ. It is used for
operation with tolerance windows, displaying the courses of curves, results
and statistics. A number of the most important checking and parameterization
functions can be performed as well. However, saving data does not occur in
the DT85 and tolerance bands or envelope curves are not supported.
The black-and-white display is a backlit 1/4" VGA display. The device can
also be connected to existing systems later on. No additional hardware or
software is required to connect it directly to the CAN connection on an MP85A
process controller.
If all the devices are interlinked via CAN, the DT85 has access to all the
devices and can display their information. It can also be connected and
disconnected while operation is ongoing.

In addition to this, a PC with the PME Assistant can be connected to another
CAN interface on the DT85. The DT85 then works as a gateway and forwards
all the data to the PC. This prevents data collision.
CAUTION
As the MP85A process controller is not Multi-Master-capable and the DT85
functions as a CAN master, the DT85 and software, e.g. the PME Assistant or
INDUSTRYmonitor, should not be operated simultaneously (possible data
collision with data loss).
