The user can also perform advanced HART programming from the front, reducing the need for handheld communicators. The 60 mm high-definition display provides a clear indication of the process variable magnitude, supported by a radial bar graph in real time. The transmitter provides HART 7 functionality with HART 5 compatibility and can be configured to measure 2, 3 and 4 wire RTDs, 13 different thermocouple types as well as bipolar mV and resistance signals, and it provides an analog output. The unit has three mounting options: on the temperature sensor, on a pipe, or on a bulkhead. Configuration is easy and logical with scrolling help texts and three optical buttons: up arrow, down arrow and OK. The menu guide makes it possible to configure the device in less than one minute.
