During work on and with the device the required personal protective equipment must always be worn. 2.2 Appropriate use The VEGADIS 62 is an indicating and adjustment unit without external energy for looping into 4 … 20 mA/HART circuits. You can find detailed information on the application range in chapter "Product description".
The environment management system is certified according to DIN EN ISO 14001. Please help us fulfil this obligation by observing the environmental instructions in this manual: Chapter "Packaging, transport and storage" Chapter "Disposal" VEGADIS 62...
3 Product description 3 Product description 3.1 Structure The indicating and adjustment unit VEGADIS 62 consists of a housing Constituent parts with a terminal insert as well as an integrated indicating and adjustment module. Dependent on the order specification, a mounting adapter for wall, carrier rail or tube mounting belongs to the housing.
VEGAWELL 52. Fig. 2: Connection of the VEGADIS 62 to a suspension pressure transmitter The VEGADIS 62 can be also used as external indication for a four- wire sensor or a VEGAMET signal conditioning instrument with active 4 … 20 mA output.
62 works as a pure indicating instrument. It measures the current in the current loop and shows it as digital value as well as via a bargraph. All settings of VEGADIS 62 are carried out manually via the buttons in the front.

Influence of additional instruments in the circuit (see load values in chapter "Technical data") Operation of VEGADIS 62 in a HART multidrop system with the signal conditioning instruments VEGAMET 625 or VEGASCAN 693 is not supported.
The connection of the signal cable is carried out via spring-loaded terminals in the housing. The indicating and adjustment module is connected via a cable with coupling to the housing. Connection procedure Proceed as follows: Unscrew the housing cover VEGADIS 62...

5.4 Connection HART standard The following illustrations show in a simplified way the use of VEGADIS 62 in conjunction with a HART sensor. The HART communication resistance in the signal cable is always required for a low impedance power supply. It is absolutely necessary to install it between voltage supply and the VEGADIS 62.

When there is a HART communication through the control room during operation, then the heat symbol flashes during the communication. The VEGADIS 62 goes to HART multidrop mode if in the menu HART multidrop "Measurement", menu item "Address" an address unequal 0 is adjusted.

Electrical variables: V, mA, Ohm User-specific unit: USER The previously listed units can be initially edited. A storing in the VEGADIS 62 is however only possible if the unit is supported by the sensor. Note: A unit adjusted in the sensor, for example, via PACTware/DTM will not be modified by the unit adjusted here.

The measured values are automatically converted into the selected unit. If % is selected as unit, then the VEGADIS 62 converts the actual loop current into a % value relating to the max. loop current. If mA is selected as a unit, then the actual loop current is displayed in mA.

DurcBy activating the unit locking, the set indication unit is locked against changes by the sensors, the display shows the sign "GESP/ LoC". Hence it is possible to adjust for the VEGADIS 62 another indicating unit than the sensor unit, e.g. %. It will also not be overwritten in case of a restart of the sensor.

For activating the reset, the "OK" key must be pushed once. After pushing the "OK" key for a second time, the indication will be completely faded out and the reset is carried out. The VEGADIS 62 carries out a restart, starts again the HART communication and passes over to the measured value indication.
