8.3.3 Parameters for Wireless

Communication

(1) Network Information
Concentrator object block : Configuration
Allows confirming the network information.

(2) Update Time
CO block : Data publication period
Sets the update time value to 0.5 to 3,600 seconds.

When amplifier housing code 7 is specified, note

that more than one second is available.

When update time is set 0 seconds, the transmitter

is stopped to update process variables by way

of the field wireless network. And the transmitter

continues to measure process variables with

special interval time internally.
(3) Measurement Mode
TRANSDUCER block: Measurement Mode
The setting affects the battery life; it becomes

shorter in the continuous mode.

When the update period is set to 1 second or less

in intermittent mode, the mode is automatically

switched to continuous mode. When the update

period is 1 second, the mode is continuous mode,

regardless of the measurement mode.
(4) Measurement Rate
TRANSDUCER block:Measurement Rate
Reads the measurement rate value from 0.5 to

3600 seconds. When amplifier housing code 7

is specified, note that the period more than one

second is displayed. The shorter the measurement

period, the shorter the battery life.
(5) Remaining battery life
UAPMO block: Energy Left
The number of days of remaining battery life is

indicated assuming that a transmitter has been

working under ambient temperature condition as

23 degrees Celsius. It takes several days for the

indicated value to be stabiilzed after the power on

and initialization of the remaining battery life.
UAPMO block: Reset Energy Left
When changing batteries, the remaining battery life

is initialized by Reset Energy Left parameter.

(6) LCD display
The following steps describe how to set LCD

display.

● Integral antenna type (Amplifier housing

code: 7)

1. On/Off of display

When “LCD Intermittent” in LCD Mode is

parameter is selected, the LCD first displays a

set of screens to be shown and then turns off

for a minute, and the display keeps the cycle

repeatedly. Not selecting this parameter turns

the LCD off.

2. On/Off of continuous display mode

When “LCD Continue” in LCD Mode is

selected, the LCD displays for 5 minutes

continuously then transits to the setting in the

LCD Intermittent.

When measurement mode is set as continuous

mode, the LCD displays continuously

regardless of display mode.

When the update time is set to 1 second, the

LCD display stays on regardless of the status in

LCD Mode.

3. On/Off of bar graph

Select “LCD Bargraph ON” in LCD Mode when

the bar graph is required.

● Detachable antenna type (Amplifier housing

code: 8 or 9)

1. On/Off of display

When “Enable” in LCD Mode is selected, the

LCD displays a set of screens to be shown and

turns off for the specified time based on LCD

Intermittent Time, and the display keeps the

cycle repeatedly. Not selecting this parameter

turns the LCD off.

2. On/Off of continuous display mode

When “Enable” is set to LCD Mode and zero is

set to LCD Intermittent Time, the LCD displays

continuously.

3. On/Off of bar graph

Select “LCD Bargraph ON” in LCD Mode when

the bar graph is required.

When the wireless connection process is in the

status of “ready,” “pause,” or “join,” the LCD display

stays on regardless of the status in LCD Mode.
