System Readiness; Verify Configuration - Emerson Rosemount 3144P Quick Start Manual

April 2015
Step 1: System readiness
Confirm HART revision capability
If using HART based control or asset management systems, please confirm

the HART capability of those systems prior to transmitter installation. Not all
systems are capable of communicating with HART Revision 7 protocol. This
transmitter can be configured for either HART Revision 5 or 7.
For instructions on how to change the HART revision of your transmitter, refer

to page 4.

Step 2: Verify configuration
The Rosemount 3144P communicates using a Field Communicator
(communication requires a loop resistance between 250 and 1100 ohms) or AMS
Device Manager. Do not operate when power is below 12 Vdc at the transmitter
terminal. Refer to the 3144P Reference Manual (document number
00809-0100-4021) and Field Communicator Reference Manual (document
number 00809-0100-4276) for more information.
Update the Field Communicator software
The latest Field Communicator Field Device Revision Dev v5 or v6, DD v1 or
greater is required to fully communicate with the 3144P. The Device Descriptors
are available with new communicators at www.emersonprocess.com or can be
loaded into existing communicators at any Emerson Process Management
Service Center.
The Device Descriptors are as follows:
Device in HART 5 mode: Device v5 DD v1
Device in HART 7 mode: Device v6 DD v1
Perform the following steps to determine if an upgrade is required. Refer to
Figure 1 on page
1. Connect the sensor (see the wiring diagram located on the inside of the
housing cover).
2. Connect the bench power supply to the power terminals ("+" or "–").
3. Connect a Field Communicator to the loop across a loop resistor or at the
power/signal terminals on the transmitter.
