2.1
The transmitter must be powered up for all configuration and commissioning tasks, or for process
measurement.
Procedure
Postrequisites
Although the sensor is ready to receive process fluid shortly after power-up, the electronics can take up to
10 minutes to reach thermal equilibrium. Therefore, if this is the initial startup, or if power has been off long
enough to allow components to reach ambient temperature, allow the electronics to warm up for
approximately 10 minutes before relying on process measurements. During this warm-up period, you may
observe minor measurement instability or inaccuracy.
Power up the transmitter
1. Follow appropriate procedures to ensure that a new device in the control system does not interfere
with existing measurement and control loops.
2. Verify that the cables are connected to the transmitter as described in the installation manual.
3. Verify that all transmitter and sensor covers and seals are closed.
WARNING
To prevent ignition of flammable or combustible atmospheres, ensure that all covers and seals are
tightly closed. For hazardous area installations, applying power while housing covers are removed or
loose can cause an explosion resulting in injury or death.
Turn on the electrical power at the power supply.
4.
The transmitter will automatically perform diagnostic routines. During this period, the Transmitter
Initializing alert is active. The diagnostic routines should complete in approximately 30 seconds.
2.2 Check meter status
Check the meter for any error conditions that require user action or that affect measurement accuracy.
Procedure
1. Wait approximately 10 seconds for the power-up sequence to complete.
Immediately after power-up, the transmitter runs through diagnostic routines and checks for error
conditions. During the power-up sequence, the Transmitter Initializing alert is active. This
alert should clear automatically when the power-up sequence is complete.
2. Check the status LED on the transmitter.

— Default: 1
— Range: 1–15, 23–47, 64–79, 96–110
Tip
— If you need an address that is out of range, you can disable Modbus ASCII Support. When Modbus
ASCII Support is disabled, the Modbus address can be set to 1–127, excluding 111. 111 is reserved for
the service port address. However, you will not be allowed to use Modbus ASCII (7-bit) for connections
to the transmitter. You must use Modbus RTU (8-bit) instead.
— The other Modbus parameters can be left at the default values unless you have trouble making the
connection.
• Set the transmitter tag and/or the long tag.
The transmitter will respond to connection requests that use either the transmitter tag or the long tag.
The long tag is supported only by HART 7. The transmitter accepts both HART 5 and HART 7 connection
requests.

Characterizing the meter adjusts your transmitter to match the unique traits of the sensor it is paired with.
The characterization parameters (also called calibration parameters) describe the sensor’s sensitivity to flow,
density, and temperature. Depending on your sensor type, different parameters are required.
Values for your sensor are provided on the sensor tag or the calibration certificate.
• If your transmitter was ordered with a sensor, it was characterized at the factory. However, you should still
verify the characterization parameters.
• Perform a characterization whenever you replace a core processor.
Procedure
1.
Optional: Specify Sensor Type.
• Straight Tube (T-Series sensors)
• Curved Tube (all sensors except T-Series)
Note
Unlike earlier transmitters, the 5700 derives Sensor Type from the user-specified values for FCF and K1
in combination with an internal ID.
2. Set the flow calibration factor: FCF (also called Flow Cal or Flow Calibration Factor). Be sure to include
all decimal points.
Set the density characterization parameters: D1, D2, TC, K1, K2, and FD. (TC is sometimes shown as
3.
DT.)
4. Apply the changes as required by the tool you are using.
The transmitter identifies your sensor type, and characterization parameters are adjusted as required:
• If Sensor Type changed from Curved Tube to Straight Tube, five characterization parameters are
added to the list.
• If Sensor Type changed from Straight Tube to Curved Tube, five characterization parameters are
removed from the list.
• If Sensor Type did not change, the list of characterization parameters does not change.
5. T-Series sensors only: Set the additional characterization parameters listed below.

2.9.2 Flow calibration parameters (FCF, FT)
Two separate values are used to describe flow calibration: a 6-character FCF value and a 4-character FT value.
They are provided on the sensor tag.
Both values contain decimal points. During characterization, these are entered as a single 10-character string.
The 10-character string is called either Flowcal or FCF.
If your sensor tag shows the FCF and the FT values separately and you need to enter a single value,
concatenate the two values to form the single parameter value, retaining both decimal points.
Concatenating FCF and FT
FCF = x.xxxx FT = y.yy Flow calibration parameter: x.xxxxy.yy

Verifying the zero helps you determine if the stored zero value is appropriate to your installation, or if a field
zero can improve measurement accuracy.
Important
In most cases, the factory zero is more accurate than the field zero. Do not zero the meter unless one of the
following is true:
• The zero is required by site procedures.
• The stored zero value fails the zero verification procedure.
Do not verify the zero or zero the meter if a high-severity alert is active. Correct the problem, then verify the
zero or zero the meter. You may verify the zero or zero the meter if a low-severity alert is active.
Procedure
1.
Prepare the meter:
a) Allow the meter to warm up for at least 20 minutes after applying power.
b) Run the process fluid through the sensor until the sensor temperature reaches the normal
process operating temperature.
c) Stop flow through the sensor by shutting the downstream valve, and then the upstream valve if
available.
d) Verify that the sensor is blocked in, that flow has stopped, and that the sensor is completely full
of process fluid.
2. Start the zero verification procedure, and wait until it completes.
3. If the zero verification procedure fails:
a) Confirm that the sensor is completely blocked in, that flow has stopped, and that the sensor is
completely full of process fluid.
b) Verify that the process fluid is not flashing or condensing, and that it does not contain particles
that can settle out.
c) Repeat the zero verification procedure.
d) If it fails again, zero the meter.
Postrequisites
Restore normal flow through the sensor by opening the valves.

3.1.1 Universal Service Port security
This transmitter is equipped with a Universal Service Port that works with USB type A connections, including
compatible flash drives. There are multiple levels of security built into the transmitter service port that you
can configure according to your needs and security standards.
The service port offers the following features that enhance interface security:
• The service port is inaccessible without physical access to the transmitter and requires removal of the
terminal cover.
• The service port can be disabled from the transmitter through software.
• The transmitter has a non-traditional operating system that is not designed to execute programs or run
scripts.
• The display can be password protected to limit access to the USB file menu.
• Overall transmitter security switches such as the lock switch or write-protection disallows configuration
changes from all interfaces including the Universal Service Port.
This transmitter:
• Was designed to be implemented in an industrial automation control system (Level 1 and Level 2 of the
Purdue Reference Architecture Model), with defense in depth security controls.
• Is not intended to be directly connected to an enterprise or to an internet-facing network without a
compensating control in place.
