On instruments with one of the optional interfaces (RS232/Ethernet), the measured values can be retrieved via modem or network and displayed by means of a web browser, Visual VEGA or WEB-VV. It is also possible to send measured values and messages via e-mail. The use of VEGAMET 625 is particularly suitable for stocktaking, VMI (Vendor Managed Inventory) and remote enquiry.

- only the measured value is transmitted. This input is for instruments with their own separate operating voltage (sensors in four-wire version or separators such as VEGATRENN 149). On a VEGAMET 625 in Ex version, the passive input is not available due to approval/technical reasons. Note: VEGAMET 625 is designed for connection of two HART sensors.
The integrated indicating and adjustment unit is used for measured Function value display, adjustment and diagnosis of VEGAMET 625 as well as the connected sensors. The indication and adjustment are carried out via four keys and a clear, graphic-capable display with background lighting.
