Procedural Considerations
CAUTION! WARNING!
In some cases, the use of a field communicator with a transmitter that is connected on-line can have an adverse effect on process operations.
Before using the MC Toolkit, be certain that you know the potential consequences of each procedure, and that you use the appropriate safeguards to prevent problems. For example, if the transmitter is an element of a control loop, the loop should be placed in the manual operating mode, and alarms and interlocks ("trips") should be disabled as appropriate before beginning the procedure.
The primary factors to be considered are separated into three categories under the following three headings.
The information under the following headings is intended as background for use of the DE Procedures and HART Procedures, which are given in separate sections of this manual.
Transmitter Type and Communication Mode
The MC Toolkit can be used with various types of field transmitters, most of which can be operated in more than one mode.
Honeywell DE transmitter operating in Smart Analog Mode
Introduction
Honeywell DE transmitter operating in Digital Enhanced (DE) Mode
Honeywell (and other) HART transmitter operating in point-to-point (Analog w/ HART digital mode)
Honeywell (and other) HART transmitter operating in multi-drop (HART-only digital mode)
The salient characteristics of each item listed, and the implications of each characteristic in procedures are described under Transmitter/Communications Characteristics
Type of Procedure and Prerequisites
The MC Toolkit is designed to provide three basic functions:
Monitoring
Configuration
Calibration
Depending on combinations of factors such as transmitter type, and communications mode, some procedures such as monitoring the performance of a transmitter can be straightforward and innocuous, but in some cases can also require special preparation and precautions.
Special Equipment and/or Environment for Calibration
Typically, a smart transmitter delivered by a major manufacturer today is designed to provide a high degree of precision throughout its operating range, and has been calibrated to a high level of accuracy that is not easy to duplicate in the user's plant process areas. Moreover, the design, materials, and manufacturing process employed will ensure that the instrument will stay within calibration limits for an extended period.
Typically, calibration of a process-connected transmitter will degrade, rather than augment, the capability of a smart transmitter. For this reason, the calibration procedures in this MC Toolkit User Manual include a recommendation that the transmitter is removed from service and is calibrated only in a controlled laboratory environment, using equipment whose precision is certified.
Release 3 34-ST-25-20 MC Toolkit User Manual 3 9/06
Transmitter/Communications Characteristics
Transmitter/Communications Characteristics
The characteristics of a typical Honeywell Smart Pressure Transmitter are summarized in Figure 3 through Figure 7, following.
Honeywell Transmitter (Analog Mode)
Analog-to-Digital Sensing
As indicated by key number (1) in Figure 3, the sensor is a sealed assembly that typically includes three separate sensors: Differential Pressure (DP), Static Pressure (SP) and Temperature (Temp).
Input Characterization
The sensor also includes a PROM, (2), which is Non-Volatile Memory (NVM) that stores "characterization" constants written at the factory, and calibration constants, which can be written at the factory and/or at the user's site. The data in NVM is used in an algorithm in the microprocessor, (3), which is executed continuously to calculate the input value.
Figure 3 Honeywell ST 3000 Smart Transmitter - Analog mode
The characterization constants, which are written at the factory, are derived from highly precise testing of the sensor's response over a range of temperatures, and from the Lower Range Limit (LRL) to the Upper Range Limit (URL) of the sensor. The purpose of the characterization constants is to compensate for very small inaccuracies in the sensor that are introduced by variations inherent in construction materials, and to ensure that the calculated input is a high-fidelity representation of the analog input (linear or square root), with a precise "zero" reference.
Input Calibration ("Corrects")
To optimize accuracy, the PROM includes storage for calibration constants: Correct Input Zero, Correct LRV, and Correct URV.
The corrects constants provide for optimum accuracy in that they enable fine-tuning of the input calculations, by first correcting at zero input, then bounding the input calculations at the user's operating
Page 4 34-ST-25-20 MC Toolkit User Manual Release 3 9/06
Introduction
range. That is, corrections are applied at the Lower Range Value (LRV) and the Upper Range Value (URV).
Factory calibration can be specified in the purchase order. Also, if precision equipment, suitable environment, and required skill are available at the user's site, input calibration can be done locally.
Reset Corrects
In some cases, the calibration procedure yields unsatisfactory results such that the Corrects constants must be removed from memory. The Reset Corrects erases all three corrects constants, so that only the factory­written characterization constants will be retained in the PROM.
Digital Communication Path
As indicated at key number (4) in Figure 4, the Honeywell Smart Transmitter includes a path for digital communications between the sensor (via the microprocessor) and the 4-20 mA current loop that connects the transmitter to external communications devices such as process control equipment ("receiver") and/or to a MC Toolkit.
Digital to-Analog Conversion and Transfer
The digital-to-analog converter (D/A) shown at key number (5) in Figure 3 is shown as a box with a dotted line to indicate that analog output mode is a user-selectable feature, for use in an application whose receiving equipment requires an analog input.
Note that the Digital I/O (Comm) (communications) box is shown in Figure 3 with solid line to indicate that the digital communications path is available at all times, even when analog mode is selected.
Honeywell Transmitter Output - Analog Mode
The diagram in Figure 4 provides an overview of a Honeywell transmitter operating in the analog mode.
Analog (PV Signal) Output
The vertical scale at the left of Figure 4 is an example of the available range (LRL to URL) of a pressure transmitter sensor as built and characterized at the factory. The area of this scale that is highlighted in white represents the configured process operating range (LRV to URV) - in this case, from 100 in H 225 in H

O.
Note that Engineering Units (EUs) shown in Figure 4 are included here only for reference. The transmitter does not perform any conversion of the base units value to Engineering Units. All conversion to EUs is performed in the MC Toolkit and/or in other receiving devices such as operating panels associated with control equipment. Default conversion is to inches-H2O @39F.)
The output of a Honeywell transmitter operating in the analog mode is a scaled value (0% - 100%) of current (4 mA to 20 mA), whose lower and upper limits correspond to the configured operating range (LRV-URV), respectively.
At the right of Figure 4, "PVEULO", "PV", and "PVEUHI" are examples of parameter names that appear on Honeywell control equipment, which are used as follows.

Transmitter/Communications Characteristics
Figure 4 Honeywell Analog Value Scaling
Digital (Communications Signal) Input/Output
As indicated at the right of Figure 4, communications between the MC Toolkit and the Honeywell Smart Transmitter consist of digital pulse strings, with rapid transitions of current level between (approximately) 4 mA and 20 mA.
URVURV
Caution:
These rapid transitions provide for effective communications, but will interfere adversely with a transmitter operating on-line in a control loop.
The MC Toolkit communicates digitally; exercise caution and good judgment when connecting the unit to an on-line transmitter operating in the analog mode.
Honeywell Transmitter Output - Digital Enhanced Mode
Most of the operation of the Honeywell Smart Pressure Transmitter Digital Enhanced (DE) mode is similar to that of operation in the analog mode. The essential characteristics of operation in DE mode are shown in Figure 5.
As indicated at the right of Figure 5, output values of process variables, as well as digital communications, are transferred to a receiving device digitally. The digital coding is Honeywell proprietary, which requires the use of DE-capable Honeywell control equipment.
The use of DE mode offers several advantages:
process safety
Unlike in the analog mode, communications devices do not "bump" the value of the PV.
accuracy is retained with less maintenance
facilitates maintenance tasks
Digital communications are relatively immune to small variations in circuit resistance or supply voltage.
Honeywell control systems include operating displays that enable direct communication with transmitters operating in DE mode.
Page 6 34-ST-25-20 MC Toolkit User Manual Release 3 9/06
Introduction
CAUTION:
Although it in not necessary to put a control loop in manual before communicating with a transmitter operating in DE mode, caution is required if there is any potential for error in identifying operating mode.
Honeywell HART Transmitters
Transmitters with HART capability have features that vary among manufacturers and with the characteristics of specific devices. The MC Toolkit supports the HART Universal, Common Practice, and Device Specific Commands that are implemented in Honeywell HART transmitters.
As the diagram in Figure 6 shows, the Honeywell HART Transmitter is virtually identical to non-HART transmitters, except that the HART version includes a Digital I/O Modulator/Demodulator block (key number (4) instead of the Honeywell DE communications block.
As indicated in Figure 7, the output of the HART includes two primary modes:
Point-to-Point Mode, in which one transmitter is connected via a two-conductor, 4-20 mA current loop
to one receiver.
Multi-Drop Mode, in which several transmitters are connected via a two-conductor network to a
multiplexed receiver device.
In point-to-point mode, the value of the primary PV is represented by a 4-20 mA current loop, almost identical to that of the Honeywell Transmitter operating in analog mode. In this case however, the analog signal is modulated by Frequency Shift Keying (FSK) methods, using frequencies and a current amplitude that do not affect analog sensing at the receiver.
Note that the accuracy of the analog level must be precisely controlled for accurate sensing, but that HART communications will not "bump" the process variables.
In multi-drop mode, up to 16 transmitters (addresses 0-15) can exist on the two-conductor network, which precludes analog transmission methods. In this case, the same FSK modulation method is used for conveying levels of PV (and other variables) and also for communications.
CAUTION:
Before connecting to a HART transmitter, ensure that the MC Toolkit is not set up for DE communications, whose current amplitude can "bump" process variables in either point-to­point mode or in multi-drop mode.
Non-Honeywell HART Transmitters and Devices
HART-capable transmitters from any manufacturer and for any specific purpose are designed to common­agreement standards that provide for inter-operability.
Guidelines published by the HART Communication Foundation enables manufacturers to design devices that communicate via a set of standard commands and responses.
The standard set of commands is an integral component of the Honeywell MC Toolkit that enables communication with many HART transmitters from other manufacturers.
The MC Toolkit application software supports the HART Revision 5.0 Universal Commands and HART Revision 5.0 Common Practice Commands. However, the MC Toolkit supports only a recommended number of Common Practice commands. The MC Toolkit does not support device-specific commands for
Release 3 34-ST-25-20 MC Toolkit User Manual 7 9/06
Transmitter/Communications Characteristics
non-Honeywell transmitters. For more information, refer to tables in the Reference Data section of this manual.
It is recommended that the SDC 625 application software, based on DD-IDE/SDC-625 technology and "OPEN" tools standard, be used with non-Honeywell HART devices. The SDC 625 is based on HART Revision 5.0 and uses Device Descriptions stored in the Pocket PC to communicate to all universal, common and specific device commands. MC Toolkit will come with all HART Registered (updated once per quarter) Device Descriptions pre-loaded.

General Procedures
Overview
The Honeywell MC Toolkit includes MC Toolkit application software and SDC 625 application software running in the PDA, a general-purpose, hand-held computing device.
This section highlights some of the general-purpose features that facilitate use of the MC Toolkit software.
Primer for MC Toolkit & SDC 625 Application Software
The following is intended as a primer for using selected Pocket PC features with the MC Toolkit application software.
Each of the following descriptions of features includes only the name of the feature and its functionality as it is used with the MC Toolkit. The details of each feature are provided in the HELP information that is included with the PDA.
As you become familiar with the MC Toolkit, you may want to explore other features that are listed and described in the PDA HELP information.
Start-Up and Basic Operation and Navigation
The sequence for starting the Pocket PC and the MC Toolkit application Software is illustrated in Figure 8 Start-up - MC Toolkit Application.
Figure 8 Start-up - MC Toolkit Application
Similarly to the MC toolkit application software, the SDC 625 application software can be started up. Turn on the PDA and click on the SDC 625 icon. The SDC 625 icon can be found by selecting Start and then Programs. The SDC 625 executable file can also be found in the Storage Card under File Explorer.
Release 3 34-ST-25-20 MC Toolkit User Manual 10 9/06
Input Methods: Letter, Numbers, Symbols
The PDA includes four methods for character input: Block Recognizer, Keyboard, Letter Recognizer, and Transcriber.
In the Keyboard method, the user selects a text field in display, and then selects a character at a time from a virtual keyboard. Using the keyboard involves familiar concepts that will enable quick and accurate entries.
In the other three methods, the stylus is used to write the desired input directly onto the screen, and each requires some adaptation of user skills. Of these, the Transcriber is probably the most efficient and easiest to use.

Input calibration
Input calibration of pressure transmitters should be done only when necessary, and should be done only under conditions that will ensure accuracy:
The transmitter should be taken out of service, and should be moved to an area with favorable environmental conditions: clean, dry, and temperature-controlled.
The source for the input pressure must be very precise, and certified for correct operation.
The procedures should be done by qualified personnel.
Details of requirements and procedure are given in Table 4.
Output Calibration
The Loop Test procedure is intended as a check for continuity and condition of components in the output current loop. The Loop Test procedure is given in Table 5.
The Trim DAC Current procedure calibrates the output of the Digital to Analog converter for minimum (0%) and maximum (100%) values of 4 mA and 20 mA, respectively. This procedure is used for transmitters operating on-line in analog mode, to ensure proper operation of the transmitter with all associated circuit components (wiring, power supply, control equipment, etc). It is necessary to use precision test equipment (an ammeter or a voltmeter in parallel with precision resistor). The Trim DAC procedure is given in Table 6.
The Apply Values procedure uses actual Process Variable input levels for calibrating the range of a transmitter. To measure a liquid level for example, a sight-glass can be used to determine the minimum (0%) and maximum (100%) level in a vessel. The Process Variable is carefully adjusted to stable minimum and maximum levels, and the LRV and URV values are then set by commands from the MC Toolkit. The DE Apply Values procedure is given in Table 7.

resistor, at least 250-ohms
Voltmeter or Ammeter
24 Vdc Power Supply (nominal)
Clean work area with suitable
environmental conditions.
Pressure Transmitter must be level.
Overview of Procedures:
The Zero-Correct procedure establishes the correct vertical positioning of the response profile.
The LRV Correct and URV Correct procedures establish the correct slope of the response profile in the process operating range by rotating the response profile around the zero-reference point as a pivot.
The Zero-Correct procedure can be done at any time during the Correct LRV and Correct URV procedures in the same calibration session.
The Correct LRV and Correct URV procedure should never be performed without first performing the Correct Input (Zero) procedure in the same calibration session.
Objective(s):
Using a precision PV input source as a reference, command the transmitter to write calibration coefficients to Non­Volatile Memory associated with transmitter input hardware and software.

(Applies to ST 3000)
Requirements:
Input source, with accuracy of at
least 0.04%
resistor, at least 250-ohms
Voltmeter or Ammeter
24 Vdc Power Supply (nominal)
Clean work area with suitable
environmental conditions.
Pressure Transmitter must be level.
Overview of Procedures:
The Zero-Correct procedure establishes the correct vertical positioning of the response profile.
The LRV Correct and URV Correct procedures establish the correct slope of the response profile by rotating the response profile around the zero­reference point as a pivot.
The Zero-Correct procedure can be done at any time during the Correct LRV and Correct URV procedures in the same calibration session.
Objective(s):
Using a precision PV input source as a reference, command the transmitter to write calibration coefficients to NVM associated with transmitter input hardware and software.
Correct Input (Zero)
Correct LRV
Correct URV
The Correct LRV and Correct URV procedure should never be performed without first performing the Correct Input (Zero) procedure in the same calibration session.
The transmitter should be removed from service and moved to a clean area.
The input source should be derived from a precision input source such as a dead­weight tester.

Using SDC 625 Application Software with all HART
Introduction
This section contains procedures for using the SDC 625 application software to communicate to any device with HART communications protocol. It is recommended that you use SDC 625 application software when communicating with non-Honeywell devices. After double-clicking on the SDC 625 icon, the following screen often appears. Choose “ignore”, it is an indicator that a configuration may have changed.

The following is the main screen for the SDC 625 application software. It is “Tree View” based solely on the devices DD – Device Description.
Release 3 34-ST-25-20 MC Toolkit User Manual 61 9/06
Introduction
As you browse through the “tree”, different values will appear in the bottom section of the main screen. Since the DD (Device Description) file can be different for each field device, SDC 625 Main screen will look different for many devices. Some field devices will require relatively few configurations commands and therefore the main screen will have a simple structure. Other devices, which require more configuration commands, will have a relatively complex main screen structure. The following table depicts the basic structure of a Device Setup menu for a Honeywell STT 250 temperature transmitter:

Are you sure you wand to Reset All Corrects to factory defaults?
Are you sure you want to place the transmitter in output mode (?)
Square Root is not allowed for GP and AP Sensor Types.
Executing Reset All Corrects will overwrite all user input calibration values (Zero, LRV, URV) with factory-default values.
In Output Mode, output current will be set to the selected constant value, rather than to calculated
Square Root conformity is available only for FLOW (DP) input applications.

MC Toolkit Software Installation/Maintenance
Overview
The MC Toolkit application software and SDC 625 application software, as well as all available HART device Descriptions (DD), have been pre-loaded into the PDA’s memory chip at the factory. The MCT101 is ready to use once the necessary batteries (included) are installed in the DE/HART Modem and PDA. It is recommended that you review the PDA manufacturer’s documentation for general use requirements such as battery charging requirements and configuration options.
The MCT202 should be unpacked per the separate safety instruction sheet.
We have also included a CD-ROM that includes the MC Toolkit application software and SDC 625 application software, should you ever need to reload it.
To establish a partnership between your desktop PC and the PDA, follow the PDA manufacturer’s documentation on how to install ActiveSync and establish a connection. The ActiveSync software is provided on the PDA manufacturer’s CD-ROM disk, or it can be obtained directly from Microsoft at:
http://www.microsoft.com/pocketpc/downloads/activesync.asp
Note: The handheld computer needs to be connected to the MC Toolkit Modem for the MC Toolkit software to operate correctly. If the modem is not connected to the handheld computer, an error message will appear.
Use the short interface cable provided for this purpose.
