Operation
5.4.2
With ProLink II
The Process Variables window opens automatically when you first connect to the transmitter. This
window displays current values for the standard process variables (mass, volume, density,
temperature, external pressure, and external temperature). If you have closed the Process Variables
window, select
ProLink > Process Variables
To view petroleum measurement process variables (if the petroleum measurement application is
enabled), select
ProLink > API Process Variables
To view concentration measurement process variables (if the concentration measurement application
is enabled), select
variables that are displayed depend on the configuration of the concentration measurement
application.

With PROFIBUS EDD
Select

Variables
5.4.4
With bus parameters
To view standard process variables, examine index 26 (AI Out) of the appropriate AI function block.
Refer to Section 2.5 for information about how slots correspond to AI function blocks.

Using sensor simulation mode
Sensor simulation mode causes simulated values to be substituted for actual process data from the
sensor. Sensor simulation mode can be enabled only with ProLink II (Figure 5-1).
