a. Ensure that the primary mA output has been wired to support
HART polling.
b. Choose View > Preferences .
c. Enable Use External Temperature.
d. Choose ProLink > Configuration > Polled Variables.
e. Choose an unused polling slot.
f. Set Polling Control to Poll As Primary or Poll as Secondary, and click
Apply.
g. Set External Tag to the HART tag of the external temperature de-
vice.
h. Set Variable Type to External Temperature.
Tip
• Poll as Primary: No other HART masters will be on the network.
• Poll as Secondary: Other HART masters will be on the network.
The Field Communicator is not a HART master.

b. Enable Use External Temperature.
c. Perform the necessary host programming and communications
setup to write temperature data to the transmitter at appropri-
ate intervals.
9. In Global Config, set Active Curve to the matrix to be used for process measurement.
Concentration process variables are now available on the transmitter. You can view and
report them in the same way that you view and report other process variables.

Configure concentration measurement using the
Field Communicator
This task guides you through setting up a concentration matrix to use for measurement. It
does not cover loading or building a concentration matrix.
Note
Concentration matrices can be made available on your transmitter either by loading an existing
matrix from a file or by building a new matrix. Up to six matrices can be available on your transmitter,
but only one can be used for measurement at any given time. See Micro Motion Enhanced Density
Application: Theory, Configuration, and Use for detailed information on building a matrix.
(6) Not available on all transmitters.
