G.1 Overview
ProLink II is a Windows-based configuration and management tool for Micro Motion transmitters. It
provides access to most Series 3000 functions and data. Pocket ProLink is a version of ProLink II that
runs on a Pocket PC.
Note: Not all Series 3000 features and functions are available via ProLink II. For complete access,
use the Series 3000 display menus.
This appendix provides basic information for connecting and using ProLink II with your Series 3000
device. The following topics and procedures are discussed:
• Requirements – see Section G.2
• Configuration upload/download – see Section G.3
• Connecting to a Series 3000 device – see Section G.4
• ProLink II menus for Series 3000 devices – see Section G.4
For more information on installing or using ProLink II, see the ProLink II manual. For more
information on installing or using Pocket ProLink, see the Pocket ProLink manual. Instructions in this
appendix will refer only to ProLink II.
G.2 Requirements
To use ProLink II with a Series 3000 device, the following are required:
• ProLink II v2.5 or later for most basic functions
• ProLink II v2.9 or later for the most recent Series 3000 enhancements
• One of the following ProLink II installation kits:
- RS-232 to Bell 202 (HART) converter with tester and cables
- RS-232 to RS-485 (Modbus or HART) converter with tester and cables
- USB to Bell 202 (HART) converter with tester and cables
- USB to RS-485 (Modbus or HART) converter with tester and cables
Note: Windows drivers are required for correct operation of the USB converters. The drivers are
provided with the USB installation kits. Install the driver before connecting the converter or adapter.
If you do not, Windows will not recognize the device when it is plugged in.
Note: If you are using the enhanced core processor and you connect directly to the core processor’s
RS-485 terminals, instead of to the transmitter, ProLink II v2.4 or later is required. This connection
type is sometimes used for troubleshooting.
