7.6 Methods
The FOUNDATION Fieldbus Specification allows for the use of methods to simplify device
operation. A method is a sequence of interactive steps to be carried out in the specified order
so as to configure certain device functions.
The following methods are available for the devices:
• Restart
This method is located in the resource block and is used to configure the Reset device
parameter. This resets the device parameters to a specific state.
• ENP Restart
This method is located in the resource block and allows the parameters of the electronic
nameplate (Electronic Name Plate) to be changed.
• Setup
This method is located in the SETUP transducer block and is used for basic configuration of
the measurement parameters (measurement units, tank or vessel type, medium, empty and
full calibration).
• Linearization
This method is located in the ADV_SETUP transducer block and allows the linearization
table to be managed for the purpose of converting the level measured into a volume, a mass
or a flow rate.
• Self Check
This method is located in the EXPERT_CONFIG transducer block and is used to perform a
device self-test.
