The Rosemount 327T Temperature Transmitter detects media temperature and converts
it into an analog output signal (4 - 20 mA). The temperature transmitter includes an IOLink interface for configuring parameter settings or viewing process and diagnostic data.
1.1Getting started
Follow these steps to configure the temperature transmitter for normal operation.
Procedure
1. Connect the temperature transmitter to a PC to set parameters using IO-Link.
2. Set the standard unit of measurement in °F or °C (Uni). (See Adjustable parameters)
3. Set the analog signal. (See Analog function)
• OU2: I = 4-20 mA or Ineg = 20-4 mA
• ASP and AEP: scaling of the measuring range.
4. Configure Drift Monitoring. (See Setting range for drW and drA)
• drW: drift threshold at which the temperature transmitter signals "warning".
• drA: drift threshold at which the temperature transmitter signals "alarm".
• ddr: Drift Monitoring Diagnostic delay.
5. Set which diagnostic cases the temperature transmitter signals using drEd. (See
Diagnostic cases)
• ON: only failure diagnostic cases
• ONdr: alarm and failure diagnostic cases
• OFF: warning, alarm, and failure diagnostic cases
6. Configure analog signal for diagnostic cases (FOU2). (See Adjustable parameters)
• ON: 21.5 mA
• OFF: 3.5 mA
7. Configure switching signal for diagnostic cases in three-wire operation (dOU1). (See
Diagnostic function (three-wire))
• dOU1: Output opens, closes, or pulsates; according to configuration.
8. Configure output logic for diagnostic output in three-wire operation (P-n). (See
Adjustable parameters)
• pnp
• npn
9. Complete all other necessary parameter settings.

1.2Functions and features
The temperature transmitter detects process temperature and converts it into an analog
output signal.
The temperature transmitter includes an IO-Link interface for configuring parameter
settings or viewing process and diagnostic data.
The transmitter operates in two-wire or three-wire operation modes. The modes produce
these output signals:
Operating modeOutput signals
Two-wireAnalog signal for temperature measurement and diagnostics
Three-wire• OUT1: switching signal for diagnostics and IO-Link communication
• OUT2: analog signal for temperature measurement and diagnostics
1.2.1Analog function
The temperature transmitter converts the measured temperature value into an analog
signal proportional to the temperature.
The temperature transmitter also uses the analog output to send diagnostic messages
(see Diagnostic function). Diagnostic messages interrupt the transfer of the measured
temperature value depending on the operating mode and drEd. The transmitter modifies
the analog output to the following values according to NE43: 3.5 mA (FOU2 = On) or 21.5
mA (FOU2 = OFF).
Depending on the OU2 setting, the analog signal is between these measuring ranges in
normal operation:
• I: 4-20 mA
• Ineg: 20-4 mA
The measuring range is scalable using these parameters:
• ASP: the analog start point and the measured temperature when the analog signal is 4
mA (OU2 = I) or 20 mA (OU2 = Ineg)
• AEP: the analog end point and the measured temperature when the analog signal is 20
mA (OU2 = I) or 4 mA (OU2 = Ineg).
Note
The minimum difference between ASP and AEP is 9°F (5°C).

If the measured temperature value is outside the scaled measuring range, the analog
signal is 20-20.5 mA or 3.8-4 mA (see Figure 1-1). When the measured temperature value
continues to increase or decrease, diagnostic case 5 occurs. For more information, see
Diagnostic cases.

• 1: Setting OU2 = I
• 2: Setting OU2 = Ineg
• MAW: initial value of the measuring range
• MEW: final value of the measuring range
• ASP: analog start point
• AEP: analog end point
Diagnostic function
The temperature transmitter uses two different, thermally coupled sensor elements (NTC,
PT 1000) to automatically detect drifts and errors during temperature measurement.
The temperature transmitter forms an average value using the individual NTC and Pt 1000
measured values. That value determines the measured temperature value and is the basis
for Drift Monitoring Diagnostic (see Drift Monitoring).
The temperature transmitter can detect other errors. Use the parameter drEd to set which
diagnostic cases the temperature transmitter signals. For more information, see
Diagnostic cases.
The analog signal provides diagnostic case messages in two-wire operations. In three-wire
operations, the switching signal provides diagnostic case messages in addition to the
analog signal.

Drift Monitoring
For Drift Monitoring Diagnostic, the temperature transmitter compares the temperature
deviation of sensor element 1 (NTC) and sensor element 2 (Pt 1000) to the average
temperature value. The parameters drW (warning threshold) and drA (alarm threshold)
define the permissible temperature deviation.
When values exceed these thresholds, the temperature transmitter triggers drift
monitoring and identifies a fault (see Diagnostic cases).
Figure 1-2: Drift monitoring example
Example: NTC sensor element (1) measures 149 °F and Pt 1000 sensor element (2)
measures 140 °F. The average value (3) is 144.5 °F, i.e. both elements deviate by 4.5 °F.
With setting drW = 4 °F and drA = 9 °F, the temperature transmitter provides a warning
message if drEd = OFF. In this case, the temperature transmitter would not send an alarm
message.
For more information about configuring drW and drA, see Setting range for drW and drA.
Note
Temperature difference of at most 0.18 °F (0.1 °C) can occur with sensor elements
because of standard manufacturing tolerances. This does not affect the drift monitoring
diagnostic.
Note
Large temperature changes in the medium might cause short-term differences between
the measured temperature values of both sensor elements. To avoid short-term drift
warnings, increase the drift warning delay time (ddr).
Sensor backup
If one of the two sensors in the transmitter fails, the temperature transmitter can use the
remaining sensor for temperature measurement.
For more information on operating the temperature transmitter in backup mode, see
Troubleshooting.
