Quick Start Guide
Note
Do NOT ground the cable shield at the transmitter; if the cable shield
touches the transmitter housing, it can create ground loops and
interfere with communications.
3. Continuously connect the cable shields to the power supply ground.
Note
Improper grounding is the most frequent cause of poor segment
communications.
4. Replace the housing cover. It is recommended that the cover be
tightened until there is no gap between the cover and the housing.
5. Plug and seal unused conduit connections.
Note
The Rosemount 2051HT polished 316 SST housing only provides
ground termination inside the terminal compartment.
