Documenting Process Calibrator HART Mode

Introduction

w Warning
To avoid electric shock, read the Safety Information in the you use the Fluke 744 Documenting Process Calibrator.
With analog transmitters, you must make a hardware adjustment during calibration. With HART Addressable Remote Transducer) transmitters, adjustments are by remote command. These adjustments require the use of a communication tool as well as a
calibrator. The Fluke 744, hereafter called “calibrator,” provides communication and calibration functions in one tool.
