Configuration Advice
Guided Setup directs you through initialization of configuration data needed for proper operation. When the
instrument comes out of the box, the default dimensions are set for the most common Fisher 249 construction, so if
any data is unknown, it is generally safe to accept the defaults. The mounting sense 'instrument left or right of
displacer' - is important for correct interpretation of positive motion. The torque tube rotation is clockwise with rising
level when the instrument is mounted to the right of the displacer, and counterclockwise when mounted to the left of
the displacer. Use Manual Setup to locate and modify individual parameters when they need to be changed.
Preliminary Considerations
Write Lock
Field Communicator Overview > Device Information > Alarm Type and Security > Security > Write Lock (1-7-3-2-1)
To setup and calibrate the instrument, write lock must be set to Writes Enabled. Write Lock is reset by a power cycle. If
you have just powered up the instrument Writes will be enabled by default.
