September 2016 Quick Start Guide NOTICE This guide provides basic guidelines for the Rosemount 4088 MultiVariable Transmitter. It does not provide instructions for diagnostics, maintenance, service, or troubleshooting. Reference the 4088 MultiVariable Transmitter Reference Manual for more instruction. All documents are available electronically at EmersonProcess.com/Rosemount.

September 2016 Quick Start Guide 2.7 Environmental seal for housing Thread sealing (PTFE) tape or paste on male threads of conduit is required to provide a water/dust tight conduit seal and meets requirements of NEMA Type 4X, IP66, and IP68. Consult factory if other Ingress Protection ratings are required. For M20 threads, install conduit plugs to full thread engagement or until mechanical resistance is met.
Quick Start Guide September 2016 Note Do not rotate the housing more than 180° without first performing a disassembly procedure [reference Rosemount 4088 MultiVariable Transmitter Reference Manual more information]. Over-rotation may sever the electrical connection between the sensor module and the electronics.
4. Connect the positive lead from the power source to the “PWR +” terminal, and the negative lead to the “PWR –” terminal. Note The Rosemount 4088 MultiVariable Transmitter uses RS-485 Modbus with 8 data bits, one stop bit and no parity. The default baud rate is 9600. Note Twisted pair wiring is required for RS-485 bus wiring.

When the enclosed threaded plug is utilized in the conduit opening, it must be installed with a minimum engagement of five threads in order to comply with explosion-proof requirements. Reference the Rosemount 4088 MultiVariable Transmitter Reference Manual for more information.

September 2016 Quick Start Guide electrical codes. The most effective transmitter case grounding method is a Ω direct connection to earth ground with minimal impedance (< 1 ). Methods for grounding the transmitter case include: Internal ground connection The internal ground connection screw is inside the terminal side of the electronics housing.

(Option Code T1 in the transmitter model number) or as a spare part to retrofit existing 4088 MultiVariable Transmitters in the field. For a complete listing of spare part numbers for transient protection terminal blocks, reference the Rosemount 4088 MultiVariable Reference Manual. A lightning bolt symbol on a terminal block identifies it as having transient protection.

September 2016 Quick Start Guide 2. Connect the RTD cable to the Rosemount 4088 MultiVariable Transmitter by inserting the cable wires through the unused housing conduit and connect to the screws on the transmitter terminal block. An appropriate cable gland should be used to seal the conduit opening around the cable.
Quick Start Guide September 2016 6.0 Verify device configuration Use RTIS with the Rosemount 4088 DTM or a HART Field Communicator with the Rosemount 4088 Device Descriptor to communicate with and verify configuration of the Rosemount 4088 MultiVariable transmitter. Figure 14...

Figure 15. Configuration via RS-485 Network Port The Rosemount 4088 may be configured with the Rosemount 3095FB Configuration Software. When using this legacy tool, only functionality that was available with the Rosemount 3095FB can be accessed. The device must be ® removed from the Modbus network prior to communicating over the RS-485 bus.
