Rosemount 5300/5400 Series

1-10

The Rosemount 5300 Series and Rosemount 5400 Series can be configured 
using the Rosemount Radar Master (RRM) PC software or a Field 
Communicator. Configuration is done by sending HART commands through 
the HART to Modbus Converter (HMC) to the 5300/5400 transmitter 
electronics. To establish HART communication, connect to the MA/MB 
terminals, or to the HART terminals. Both alternatives are described below.

The 5300/5400 level transmitter can be configured with RRM using the MA, 
MB terminals.

An RS-485 Converter is required to connect to the transmitter.

The transmitter will try to establish communication using different protocols 
during 20 second timeslots from time of startup.

The transmitter will continue to use a communication protocol once
