Configuration
Summary,
continued

When using a Honeywell-defined SMV template, you should choose a file
template for the temperature range and model of SMV that you wish to
configure.

For example, if the SMV transmitter is a model SMA125 and you are
using a J-type thermocouple as the process temperature PV3 input, you
would choose the template file

sma125j.hdt

from the list of Honeywell

templates. You would then enter the configuration parameters in the
fields of the tab cards displayed in the SCT window.

Configuration is complete when you have entered all parameters in the
template’s tab cards, (and for flow applications you have entered all flow
data in the flow compensation wizard). You then save the template file
containing the SMV transmitter’s database as a disk file.

SMV 3000 /SCT
Connections

Refer to Section 5.2 Establishing Communications or the SCT on-line user
manual for connecting the SCT and SMV for on-line configuration.

SFC and SMV 3000
Configuration

We do not recommend that you configure the SMV using the Smart Field
Communicator (SFC). Some of the advanced functions of the SMV
transmitter are not supported by the SFC. However you can use the SFC
to perform certain operations, such as calibrate or re-range the transmitter,
read transmitter status and diagnose faults.
