CONFIGURATION
The Rosemount 5300/5400 level transmitter can communicate with RTUs
using Modbus RTU (often referred to as just “Modbus”), Modbus ASCII, and
Levelmaster (also known as “ROS,” “Siemens,” or “Tank” protocol).

NOTE
To change Modbus communication parameters, the Rosemount 5300/5400
must use HART address 1, the default address.

NOTE
After changing communication parameters, disconnect the HART modem and
wait at least 60 seconds for the change to take effect.
In case the MA/MB terminals are used for connection to the HMC, disconnect
the RS-485 Converter, cycle power to the transmitter and wait up to 60
seconds for the change to take effect.
