Page 3: Getting Started
Now the FRCCFG program has been installed. STARTING UP THE FRCCFG Connect the model FRC Universal Temperature Transmitter to the PC via HART modem cable. Press Start on the task bar and choose FRCCFG from Program menu. FRCCFG USERS MANUAL EM-7451-FEF-G... -
Page 4: Model Frc General Description
BURNOUT Broken wire detection (Burnout) function can be enabled or disabled. When enabled, the FRC applies an excitation voltage for a very short time period. The PV at burnout is not assured, and the output is according to the preset alarm action. -
Page 5: Operating The Frccfg Pc Configurator
OPERATING THE FRCCFG PC CONFIGURATOR Figure 1 shows the initial view of the FRCCFG PC Configurator window. In order to enable tools shown on the screen, the model FRC Universal Temperature Transmitter must be connected to the PC via a HART modem. -
Page 6: Connecting The Device (Frc)
Connects the device of which polling address is specified in the device address. Once the connection is established, the program uploads the device’s configuration information and automatically opens the Device Information view. The view is the base for various operations to configure the FRC. Disconnect device Disconnects the currently connected device. -
Page 7: Monitoring Trends
MONITORING TRENDS Once the device is connected, the Device Information menu and the trend monitors appears on the screen. The user can configure various parameters of the FRC. Figure 3. Device Information 3.2.1 COMMUNICATION STATUS Comm Status summarizes current communications status by lamps showing the communication status byte contents in HART commands. -
Page 8: Device Status
This lamp can be turned off by [Reset configuration change flag] in the Diagnostics view. [CLD] lamp Always OFF with the FRC. [AFX] lamp Red light turns on when the analog output entered in fixed output mode. Fixed output mode is initiated by one or more of the following conditions: ∙... -
Page 9: Bargraph & Trend Graph
3.2.3 BARGRAPH & TREND GRAPH Four bargraphs indicating PV in engineering unit, PV in % of the selected range, the terminal temperature and analog output current are available. When ‘External CJC’ is selected, the terminal temperature shows that of the external terminals. -
Page 10: Device Configuration
DEVICE CONFIGURATION In Figure 3, the Device Information menu on the left shows basic configuration information of the connected device. When you need to change configurations, click the left button for the required parameter to modify its setting. Sensor type Specifies sensor type, measurement type and number of extension wires (sensor wires). -
Page 11: Detailed Information
DETAILED INFORMATION In Figure 3, clicking [Detailed Device Info] in Functions menu to the right opens the [Detailed Device Information] menu as shown in Figure 5. Figure 5. Detailed Device Information The menu shows the following parameters: Manufacturer, Device type, Device identification, Number of preambles, Universal command revision, Transmitter specific revision, Hardware revision, Software revision, Final assembly num- ber, Tag name, Descriptor, Date and Message. -

DIAGNOSTICS Click [Diagnostics] button to open the Diagnostics view as shown in Figure 6. Figure 6. Diagnostics Reset configuration change flag Turns off the CFG lamp in Device Status. The red CFG lamp is automatically turned on whenever configurations are changed, and remains on unless it is manually reset using this button. -
Page 13: Fixed Analog Output
FIXED ANALOG OUTPUT Click [Analog Output] button to open the Analog Output view as shown in Figure 7. Figure 7. Analog Output Set AO for current PV output The output current is held at the current value. Set AO for specified value You can set a specific fixed value for the output. -
Page 14: Dac Trimming
DAC TRIMMING Click [Trim DAC] button to open the Trim DAC view as shown in Figure 8. Figure 8. Trim DAC 3.7.1 ENTER 4mA TRIM MODE (1) Click [Enter 4mA trim mode]. The device outputs a fixed 4mA signal. (2) Measure actual output current at the receiving instrument to which the device output should be matched. (3) Click [Trim by actual measured value] to set the measured value. -
Page 15: Sensor Calibration
SENSOR CALIBRATION Input values from the sensor can be finely calibrated with “two-point calibration” that calibrates at “low calibration point” and “high calibration point.” The method can calibrate the mV and thermocouple input against the measured voltage, while the RTD input is against the measured resistance. Since the engineering unit of PV can be used for the calibration, it is easy to calibrate. -
Page 16: Polling Address
POLLING ADDRESS Click [Polling Address] button to open the Device Address view as shown in Figure 10. Figure 10. Polling Address Device address Shows the polling address of currently connected device. Write device address Write to the device a new polling address. Selectable addresses are from 0 to 15. The output current is fixed to 4mA, and [Analog Output] or [Trim DAC] functions become unavailable. - Page 17 M-System, or from M-System’s authorized distributors or resell- Period, the purchaser must promptly (and, in any event not ers, for its own use not for resale, that the M-System products more than 30 days after the discovery of such failure) notify...
