RTD or ohm inputs
Various RTD configurations, including 2-wire and 3-wire are used in industrial applications. If the transmitter is mounted remotely from a 3-wire RTD, it will operate within specifications, without recalibration, for lead wire resistances of up to 60 ohms per lead (equivalent to 6,000 feet of 20 AWG wire). If using a 2-wire RTD, both RTD leads are in series with the sensor element, so errors can occur if the lead lengths exceed one foot of 20 AWG wire. Compensation for this error is provided when using 3-wire RTDs.

Thermocouple or millivolt inputs
Use appropriate thermocouple extension wire to connect the thermocouple to the transmitter. Make connections for millivolt inputs using copper wire. Use shielding for long runs of wire.
Analog inputs
The analog connector converts the 4–20 mA signal to a 20–100 mV signal that can be read by the 848T and transmitted using F
Use the following steps when installing the 848T with the analog connector:
1. The 848T, when ordered with option code S002, comes with four analog connectors. Replace the standard connector with the analog connector on the desired channels.
2. Wire one or two analog transmitters to the analog connector according to Figure 2-6. There is space available on the analog connector label for identification of the analog inputs.
Note
Power supply should be rated to support the connected transmitter(s).
3. If the analog transmitters can communicate using HART connectors are supplied with the ability to switch in a 250 ohm resistor for HART communication (see Figure 2-7).

2.3.2 Power supply
Connections
The transmitter requires between 9 and 32 VDC to operate and provide complete functionality. The DC power supply should provide power with less than 2% ripple. A fieldbus segment requires a power conditioner to isolate the power supply filter and decouple the segment from other segments attached to the same power supply.
All power to the transmitter is supplied over the signal wiring. Signal wiring should be shielded, twisted pair for best results in electrically noisy environments. Do not use unshielded signal wiring in open trays with power wiring or near heavy electrical equipment.
Use ordinary copper wire of sufficient size to ensure the voltage across the transmitter power terminals does not go below 9 VDC. The power terminals are polarity insensitive. To power the transmitter:
1. Connect the power leads to the terminals marked “Bus,” as shown in Figure 2-8.
2. Tighten the terminal screws to ensure adequate contact. No additional power wiring is necessary.
Section 2: Installation
November 2014

A. Ground (required with T1 option) B. Connect power leads here
2.3.3 Surges/transients
The transmitter will withstand electrical transients encountered through static discharges or induced switching transients. However, a transient protection option (option code T1) is available to protect the 848T against high-energy transients. The device must be properly grounded using the ground terminal (see Figure 2-8).

2.4 Grounding

The 848T transmitter provides input/output isolation up to 620 V rms.
Note
Neither conductor of the fieldbus segment can be grounded. Grounding out one of the signal wires will shut down the entire fieldbus segment.

After configuring the transmitter, the data can be protected from unwarranted changes. Each 848T is equipped with a security switch that can be positioned “ON” to prevent the accidental or deliberate change of configuration data. This switch is located on the front side of the electronics module and is labeled SECURITY.
See Figure 2-9 for switch location on the transmitter label.
Simulate enable
The switch labeled SIMULATE ENABLE is used in conjunction with the Analog Input (AI) and Multiple Analog Input (MAI) function blocks. This switch is used to simulate temperature measurement.
Not used
The switch is not functional.

2.6 Tagging

Commissioning tag
The 848T has been supplied with a removable commissioning tag that contains both the Device ID (the unique code that identifies a particular device in the absence of a device tag) and a space to record the device tag [the operational identification for the device as defined by the Piping and Instrumentation Diagram (P&ID)].
When commissioning more than one device on a fieldbus segment, it can be difficult to identify which device is at a particular location. The removable tag, provided with the transmitter, can aid in this process by linking the Device ID to its physical location. The installer should note the physical location of the transmitter on both the upper and lower location of the commissioning tag. The bottom portion should be torn off for each device on the segment and used for commissioning the segment in the control system.

Status handling
There are no status parameters associated with the resource block.
3.4.2 Field Diagnostics & PlantWeb Alerts
The 848T ITK6 has two mechanisms for alarms, one is Field Diagnostics (FD) and other is PlantWeb Alerts (PWA) for backward compatibility only.
The flexible capability has been added to allow user to select any alarm to be in the PWA FAILED/FD FAILED group or PWA MAINTENANCE/FD OFFSPEC group or PWA ADVISE/FD MAINTENANCE group or PWA ADVISE/FD CHECK group.
In PlantWeb Alerts, the alarms can be represented in three groups i.e. FAILED, MAINT & ADVISE. In Field Diagnostic, the alarms can be represented in four groups i.e. FAILED, OFFSPEC, MAINT & CHECK.
Parameter FAILED_PRI is used as a switch for using Field Diagnostic and PlantWeb Alerts.
How to use Field Diagnostic Alarm
If FAILED_PRI is equal to 0, Field Diagnostic alarms are supported and PlantWeb alarms are not. Field Diagnostic functionality includes four different Field Diagnostic Alarms such as FD_FAIL_ALM, FD_OFFSPEC_ALM, FD_MAINT_ALM and FD_CHECK_ALM. For these alarms, there are corresponding alarm priority parameter, masking parameter alarm active and alarm mapping parameter such as FD_*_PRI, FD_*_MASK & FD_*_ACTIVE & FD_*_MAP.
How to use PlantWeb Alarm
If FAILED_PRI is greater than 0, PlantWeb alarms are supported and Field Diagnostic are not. PlantWeb functionality includes three different PlantWeb Alarms FAILED_ALM, MAINT_ ALM and ADVISE_ ALM. For PlantWeb Alerts, there are corresponding alarm masking parameter, alarm active parameter and alarm mapping parameter such as *_MASK, *_ACTIVE & *_ENABLE. These parameters have Read only access and are duplicated from corresponding FD parameters.
So for example, in case of PWA alarms, if user wishes to change the mapping of any PlantWeb Alerts then the new value is written to the corresponding FD_*_MAP parameter. *_ENABLE shall reflect whatever is being written to FD_*_MAP parameter. The same applies for *_MASK parameters.
Note
Here * implies all 4 categories of FD alerts for e.g. FD_*_ACTIVE resembles FD_FAIL_ACTIVE, FD_OFFSPEC_ACTIVE, FD_MAINT_ACTIVE & FD_CHECK ACTIVE. The similar notation is also applicable for PWA alarms for e.g. FD_*_ACTIVE resembles FAIL_ACTIVE, MAINT_ACTIVE & ADVISE ACTIVE.

3.4.3 PlantWeb alerts
The alerts and recommended actions should be used in conjunction with “Operation and
Maintenance” on page 53.
The Resource Block will act as a coordinator for PlantWeb alerts. There will be three alarm parameters (FAILED_ALARM, MAINT_ALARM, and ADVISE_ALARM) which will contain information regarding some of the device errors which are detected by the transmitter software. There will be a RECOMMENDED_ACTION parameter which will be used to display the recommended action text for the highest priority alarm and a HEALTH_INDEX parameters (0 -
100) indicating the overall health of the transmitter. FAILED_ALARM will have the highest priority followed by MAINT_ALARM and ADVISE_ALARM will be the lowest priority.
FAILED_ALARMS
A failure alarm indicates a failure within a device that will make the device or some part of the device non-operational. This implies that the device is in need of repair and must be fixed immediately. There are five parameters associated with FAILED_ALARMS specifically, they are described below.
FAILED_ENABLED

Transducer block modes
(1)
The transducer block supports two modes of operation as defined by the MODE_BLK parameter:
Configuration
Reference Manual
00809-0100-4697, Rev GA
Automatic (Auto)
The block outputs reflect the analog input measurement.
Out of Service (OOS)
The block is not processed. Channel outputs are not updated and the status is set to Bad: Out of Service for each channel. The BLOCK_ERR parameter shows Out of Service. In this mode, changes can be made to all configurable parameters. The target mode of a block may be restricted to one or more of the supported modes.
Transducer block alarm detection
Alarms are not generated by the transducer block. By correctly handling the status of the channel values, the down stream block (AI or MAI) will generate the necessary alarms for the measurement. The error that generated this alarm can be determined by looking at BLOCK-ERR and XD_ERROR.
Transducer block status handling
Normally, the status of the output channels reflect the status of the measurement value, the operating condition of the measurement electronics card, and any active alarm conditions. In a
transducer, PV reflects the value and status quality of the output channels.

4.1 Safety messages

Instructions and procedures in this section may require special precautions to ensure the safety of the personnel performing the operations. Information that potentially raises safety issues is
indicated by a warning symbol ( ). Refer to the following safety messages before performing an operation preceded by this symbol.
4.1.1 Warnings
Failure to follow these installation guidelines could result in death or serious injury.
Make sure only qualified personnel perform the installation.
Process leaks could result in death or serious injury.
Do not remove the thermowell while in operation. Removing while in operation may
cause process fluid leaks.
Install and tighten thermowells and sensors before applying pressure, or process
leakage may result.
Electrical shock could cause death or serious injury.
If the senor is installed in a high voltage environment and a fault condition or
installation error occurs, high voltage may be present on transmitter leads and terminals.
Use extreme caution when making contact with the leads and terminals.

4.2 FOUNDATION™ fieldbus information

FOUNDATION fieldbus is an all-digital, serial, two-way, multi-drop communication protocol that interconnects devices such as transmitters and valve controllers. It is a local area network (LAN) for instruments that enable basic control and I/O to be moved to the field devices. The Model 848T uses F Management and the other members of the independent Fieldbus Foundation.

4.2.1 Commissioning (addressing)
Reference Manual
00809-0100-4697, Rev GA
To be able to setup, configure, and have it communicate with other devices on a segment, a device must be assigned a permanent address. Unless requested otherwise, it is assigned a temporary address when shipped from the factory.
If there are two or more devices on a segment with the same address, the first device to start up will use the assigned address (ex. Address 20). Each of the other devices will be given one of the four available temporary addresses. If a temporary address is not available, the device will be unavailable until a temporary address becomes available.
Use the host system documentation to commission a device and assign a permanent address.

4.3 Hardware maintenance

The 848T has no moving parts and requires a minimal amount of scheduled maintenance. If a malfunction is suspected, check for an external cause before performing the diagnostics presented below.
4.3.1 Sensor check
To determine whether the sensor is causing the malfunction, connect a sensor calibrator or simulator locally at the transmitter. Consult an Emerson Process Management representative for additional temperature sensor and accessory assistance.
4.3.2 Communication/power check
If the transmitter does not communicate or provides an erratic output, check for adequate
54
voltage to the transmitter. The transmitter requiresbetween 9.0 and 32.0 VDC at the terminals to operate with complete functionality. Check for wire shorts, open circuits, and multiple grounds.

4.3.3 Resetting the configuration (RESTART)
There are two types of restarts available in the Resource Block. The following section outlines the usage for each of these. For further information, see RESTART in Table 3-2 on page 3-25.
Restart processor (cycling)
Performing a Restart Processor has the same effect as removing power from the device and reapplying power.
Restart with defaults
Performing a Restart with Defaults resets the static parameters for all of the blocks to their initial state. This is commonly used to change the configuration and/or control strategy of the device, including any custom configurations done at the Rosemount factory.

C.1 Overview

FOUNDATION fieldbus is an all-digital, serial, two-way, multi-drop communication protocol that interconnects devices such as transmitters, sensors, actuators, and valve controllers. Fieldbus is a Local Area Network (LAN) for instruments that are used in both process and manufacturing automation, having the built-in capability to distribute the control applications across the network. The fieldbus environment is the base level group of digital networks and the hierarchy of plant networks.
November 2014
The F
OUNDATION fieldbus retains the desirable features of the 4–20 mA analog system, including
standardized physical interface to the wire, bus-powered devices on a single pair of wires, and intrinsic safety options. It also enables the following capabilities:
Increased capabilities due to full digital communication. Reduced wiring and wire terminations due to multiple devices on one pair of wires. Increased supplier selection due to interoperability Reduced loading on control room equipment due to the distribution of some control
and input/output functions to field devices.
F
OUNDATION fieldbus devices work together to provide I/O and control for automated processes
and operations. The Fieldbus Foundation provides a framework for describing these systems as a collection of physical devices interconnected by a fieldbus network. One of the ways that the physical devices are used is to perform their portion of the total system operation by implementing one or more function blocks.

C.2 Function blocks

Function blocks perform process control functions, such as analog input (AI) and analog output (AO) functions as well as proportional-integral-derivative (PID) functions. The standard function blocks provide a common structure for defining function block inputs, outputs, control parameters, events, alarms, and modes, and combining them into a process that can be implemented within a single device or over the fieldbus network. This simplifies the identification of characteristics that are common to function blocks.
The Fieldbus Foundation has established the function blocks by defining a small set of parameters used in all function blocks called universal parameters. The F defined a standard set of function block classes, such as input, output, control, and calculation blocks. Each of these classes has a small set of parameters established for it. They have also published definitions for transducer blocks commonly used with standard function blocks. Examples include temperature, pressure, level, and flow transducer blocks.

The Fieldbus Foundation specifications and definitions allow vendors to add their own parameters by importing and subclassing specified classes. This approach permits extending function block definitions as new requirements are discovered and as technology advances.
Figure C-1 illustrates the internal structure of a function block. When execution begins, input
parameter values from other blocks are snapped-in by the block. The input snap process ensures that these values do not change during the block execution. New values received for these parameters do not affect the snapped values and will not be used by the function block during the current execution.
Figure C-1. Function Block Internal Structure
Reference Manual
00809-0100-4697, Rev GA
Once the inputs are snapped, the algorithm operates on them, generating outputs as it progresses. Algorithm executions are controlled through the setting of contained parameters. Contained parameters are internal to function blocks and do not appear as normal input and output parameters. However, they may be accessed and modified remotely, as specified by the function block.
Input events may affect the operation of the algorithm. An execution control function regulates the receipt of input events and the generation of output events during execution of the algorithm. Upon completion of the algorithm, the data internal to the block is saved for use in the next execution, and the output data is snapped, releasing it for use by other function blocks.
A block is a tagged logical processing unit. The tag is the name of the block. System management services locate a block by its tag. Thus the service personnel need only know the tag of the block to access or change the appropriate block parameters.
Function blocks are also capable of performing short-term data collection and storage for reviewing their behavior.

C.3 Device descriptions

Device descriptions (DD) are specified tool definitions that are associated with the Resource and Transducer Blocks. Device descriptions provide the definition and description of the function blocks and their parameters.
To promote consistency of definition and understanding, descriptive information, such as data type and length, is maintained in the device description. Device Descriptions are written using
90
an open language called the Device Description Language (DDL). Parameter transfers between function blocks can be easily verified because all parameters are described using the same language. Once written, the device description can be stored on an external medium, such as a CD-ROM or diskette. Users can then read the device description from the external medium. The use of an open language in the device description permits interoperability of function blocks
