WARNING
Follow instructions
Failure to follow these installation guidelines could result in death or serious injury.
Ensure only qualified personnel perform the installation.
WARNING
Explosions
Explosions could result in death or serious injury.
Installation of the transmitters in a hazardous environment must be in accordance with the
appropriate local, national, and international standards, codes, and practices. Please review the
Product Certifications section for any restrictions associated with a safe installation.
Do not remove the connection head cover in explosive atmospheres when the circuit is live.
Before connecting a handheld communicator in an explosive atmosphere, ensure the instruments
are installed in accordance with intrinsically safe or non-incendive field wiring practices.Verify the
operating atmosphere of the transmitter is consistent with the appropriate hazardous locations
certifications.
All connection head covers must be fully engaged to meet explosion-proof requirements.
WARNING
Process leaks
Process leaks could result in death or serious injury.
Do not remove the thermowell while in operation.
Install and tighten thermowells and sensors before applying pressure.

WARNING
Electrical shock
Electrical shock could cause death or serious injury.
Avoid contact with the leads and terminals. High voltage that may be present on leads can cause
electrical shock.
The Rosemount™ 644 communicates using the Field Communicator.
Communication requires a loop resistance between 250 and 1100 ohms. Do
not operate when power is below 12 Vdc at the transmitter terminal. Refer
to the Rosemount 644 Reference Manual and the Field Communicator
Reference Manual for more information.
1.1Update the field communicator software
The Field Communicator field device revision Dev v6, Device Dashboard
(DD) v1 or higher is required for complete functionality. The device will
communicate with all previous Rosemount™ 644 DD revisions.
Use this procedure to determine if a software upgrade is required.

Procedure
1. Connect the sensor.
See the wiring diagram on the inside of housing cover.
2. Connect the bench power supply to the power terminals (“+” or “–”).
3. Connect a Field Communicator to the loop across a loop resistor or at
the power/signal terminals on the transmitter.
The following message will appear if the communicator has a
previous version of the device descriptors (DDs). Upgrade the
communicator software to access new XMTR
functions. Continue with old description?

Need help?
• If this notice does not appear, the latest DD is installed.
• If the latest version is not available, the communicator will
communicate properly.
Note
When the transmitter is configured to use the advanced features of
the transmitter (i.e., one of the added sensor input types), the user
will experience trouble communicating and will be prompted to turn
the communicator off. To prevent this from happening, upgrade to
the latest DD or answer NO to the question and default to the
generic transmitter functionality.
