6 Setup

6.1 Operation

There are no adjustment elements on VEGAT-

RENN 149A Ex. Via the HART communication

sockets in the front, a parameter adjustment of

the connected HART sensors can be carried

out without interrupting the measuring circuit.

The resistor (250 Ω) required for this purpose

is already integrated in VEGATRENN 149A

Ex (only in case of connection of O+H). The

adjustment is carried out via a Windows PC with

a parameter adjustment software such as e.g.

PACTware and respective DTM.

6.2 Indication of the function

The yellow LED in the front plate of VEGAT-

RENN 149A Ex lights as soon as a signal condi-

tioning instrument is connected to the output.

7 Maintenance and fault

rectification

7.1 Maintenance

If the instrument is used properly, no special

maintenance is required in normal operation.

7.2 Rectify faults

Failure reasons

A maximum of reliability is ensured. Neverthel-

ess, faults can occur during operation. These

may be caused by the following, e.g.:

Measured value from sensor not correct

Voltage supply

Interference on the cables

Fault rectification

The first measure to be taken is to check the

input/output signal as well as the power supply.

In many cases, the causes can be determined

and faults can be quickly rectified.
