2.2 Device description
This device is a 24 GHz FMCW-radar level transmitter. It is a non-contact technology and is 2wire loop-powered. It is designed to measure the distance, level, mass, volume and reflectivity
of granulates and powders.
Radar level transmitters use an antenna to guide a signal to the surface of the measured
product. The device has many antennas available. Thus, it can measure most products even in
difficult conditions. Also refer to
The device has a set-up wizard, fully-potted electronic circuit boards and online help functions.
You usually will not need this Handbook to install, set up and operate the device.
If it is ordered with the applicable options, it can be certified for use in hazardous areas.
These output options are available:
• 1 output: 4...20 mA (HART)
• 2 outputs: 4...20 mA (HART) + 4...20 mA

3.6 Installation recommendations for solids
CAUTION!
Do not install the device above objects in the silo (ladder, supports etc.). Objects in the silo can
cause parasite radar signals. If there are parasite radar signals, the device will not measure
correctly.
If it is not possible to install the device on another part of the silo, do an empty spectrum scan.
INFORMATION!
We recommend that you configure the device when the silo is empty.
INFORMATION!
For the best device performance, the antenna should be silo-intrusive. Refer to the illustration
that follows.
INSTALLATION 3

1 The level transmitter can continue to measure to the bottom of the silo if you tilt the device as shown in the illustration
(a 2° slanted flange option is available for all antennas)

If the device measures level in a silo that contains obstructions (ladder, supports etc.), these
objects can cause radar signal interference (parasitic signals). You can use the empty spectrum

It is possible that the device cannot find the bottom of the silo if it is installed in a silo with a dishshaped or conical bottom. The form of the silo bottom causes a delayed radar reflection and the
device will display the error message "Measurement is lost in the tank bottom".
You can offset the tank bottom reference point to find the delayed radar reflection. Obey the

• Empty the silo.
• Increase the tank height in menu C.1.2.
• Go to the signal screen

8 TECHNICAL DATA
8.1 Measuring principle
A radar signal is emitted via an antenna, reflected from the product surface and received after a
time t. The radar principle used is FMCW (Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave).
The FMCW-radar transmits a high frequency signal whose frequency increases linearly during
the measurement phase (called the frequency sweep). The signal is emitted, reflected on the
measuring surface and received with a time delay, t. Delay time, t=2d/c, where d is the distance
to the product surface and c is the speed of light in the gas above the product.
For further signal processing the difference Δf is calculated from the actual transmitted
frequency and the received frequency. The difference is directly proportional to the distance. A
large frequency difference corresponds to a large distance and vice versa. The frequency
difference Δf is transformed via a Fourier transformation (FFT) into a frequency spectrum and
then the distance is calculated from the spectrum. The level results from the difference between
tank height and measuring distance.

9 DESCRIPTION OF HART INTERFACE
9.1 General description
The HART® Protocol is an open digital communication protocol for industry. It is free to use by
anyone. It is included in the software embedded in signal converters of HART-compatible
devices.
OPTIWAVE 6300 C
There are 2 classes of devices which support the HART
®
Protocol: operating devices and field
devices. There are 2 classes of operating devices (Master): PC-supported workstations (Primary
Master) and manual control units (Secondary Master). These can be used in control centres and
other locations. HART
®
field devices include sensors, converters and actuators. Field devices
include 2-wire and 4-wire devices, and also intrinsically-safe versions for use in hazardous
areas.
There are 2 primary operation modes for HART-compatible devices: point-to-point mode and
multi-drop mode.
If the device is used in point-to-point mode, the HART
®
Protocol uses the Bell 202 Frequency
Shift Keying (FSK) standard to put a digital signal on top of the 4...20 mA signal. The connected
®
device sends and receives digital signals that agree with the HART
Protocol, and sends analog
signals at the same time. Only 1 device can be connected to the signal cable.
If the device is used in multi-drop mode, the network only uses a digital signal that agrees with
the HART
®
Protocol. The loop current is set to 4 mA. You can connect a maximum of 15 devices
to the signal cable.
An FSK or HART
®
modem is included in field devices and manual control units. It is necessary to
have an external modem for PC-supported workstations. The external modem is connected to
the serial interface.

• as Point-to-Point connection and
• as Multi-Drop connection with 2-wire connection.
9.3.1 Point-to-Point connection - analogue / digital mode
Point-to-Point connection between the signal converter and the HART® Master.
The current output of the device is passive.
Also refer to
Point-to-point connection
on page 33.
9.3.2 Multi-Drop connection (2-wire connection)
Up to 15 devices may be installed in parallel (this signal converter and other HART® devices).
For an illustration of multi-drop networks, refer to
For data on communication in multi-drop mode, refer to
Multi-drop networks
on page 34.
Network configuration

9.4 HART® device variables
OPTIWAVE 6300 C
HART® device variable
level 0 linear
distance 1 linear
level conversion 2 linear
level mass 3 linear

The HART® dynamic variables PV (Primary Variable), SV (Secondary Variable), TV (Third Variable)
and 4V (Fourth Variable) can be assigned to any of the device variables.

9.5 Field Communicator 375/475 (FC 375/475)
The Field Communicator is a hand terminal from Emerson Process Management that is
designed to configure HART
used to integrate different devices into the Field Communicator.

9.5.1 Installation
CAUTION!
The Field Communicator cannot be used to correctly configure, operate or read data from the
device unless the Device Description (DD) file is installed.
System and software requirements for the Field Communicator
• System card that includes the "Easy Upgrade Option"
• Field Communicator Easy Upgrade Programming Utility
• HART
For more data, refer to the Field Communicator User’s Manual.
9.5.2 Operation
INFORMATION!
The Field Communicator will not give you access to the service menu. A simulation is only
possible for current outputs.
The Field Communicator and the device's local display use almost the same procedures to
operate the signal converter. The online help for each menu item refers to the function number
given to each menu item on the local device display. Protection of settings is the same as on the
device's local display.
