This manual contains notices you have to observe in order to ensure your personal safety, as well as to prevent
damage to property. The notices referring to your personal safety are highlighted in the manual by a safety alert
symbol, notices referring only to property damage have no safety alert symbol. These notices shown below are
graded according to the degree of danger.
DANGER
indicates that death or severe personal injury will result if proper precautions are not taken.
WARNING
indicates that death or severe personal injury may result if proper precautions are not taken.
CAUTION
indicates that minor personal injury can result if proper precautions are not taken.
NOTICE
indicates that property damage can result if proper precautions are not taken.
If more than one degree of danger is present, the warning notice representing the highest degree of danger will be
used. A notice warning of injury to persons with a safety alert symbol may also include a warning relating to property
damage.

This manual contains all information needed to integrate the process instruments into a
communications network. The manual is aimed at control system designers, system
integrators, instrument engineers.
In order to operate safety and for more detailed information you need the product specific
manual. Available for download from Flow documentation (http://www.siemens.com/
flowdocumentation).
This manual applies to the SITRANS FCT030 transmitter HART version only. The FCT030
transmitter can be used in combination with the following sensors:
Mass 2100
FC300
FCS400 and FCS300
In order to operate a Coriolis flow meter, you also need Operating Instructions. See Flow
documentation (http://www.siemens.com/flowdocumentation)

The HART address can be set either via hardware (DIP switch) or via software (HMI or
SIMATIC PDM).
The DIP switch is located on the transmitter cassette.

HART Communication Interface
2.1 HART Communication Interface
● Configuration via DIP switch (HW polling address)
Set 1 to 15 on the DIP switch if you wish to set a fixed (hardware-defined) HART polling
address (SW polling address will be ignored). The configured HW polling address can be
read via HMI in menu item 4.2.
● Configuration via HMI or SIMATIC PDM (SW polling address)
Disable the HW polling address by setting all switches to "OFF" on the HART DIP switch.
The device starts up with default slave address = 0. The SW polling address can be changed
to a value between 0 and 63 via HMI (menu item 4.1) or SIMATIC PDM
The assignment of the measured process values to HART device variables (PV - primary
variable; SV - secondary variable; TV - tertiary variable; and QV - quaternary variable) can be
modified and assigned as desired via local user interface or via HART interface using SIMATIC
PDM.

HART Communication Interface
2.2 Connecting the Current HART, CH1
Communication is via the HART protocol, using:
● HART Communicator (load 230 to 500 Ω)
● PC with HART modem, on which appropriate software is installed, for example
SIMATIC PDM (load 230 to 500 Ω)
● Control system which can communicate via the HART protocol, for example SIMATIC PCS7
①SIMATIC PLC system with HART interface
②HART modem
③PC with SIMATIC PDM or similar application

2.2Connecting the Current HART, CH1
Note
4 to 20 mA output
It is not required to use shielded cables for the pure 4 to 20 mA current output.
Note
HART communication
It is recommended by the FieldComm Group (FCG) to use shielded cables for the HART
communication.
Note
Passive channels only
Channel 1 power supply must be separated from that for channels 2 to 4.
Signal return (or common) can be joined.
