Rosemount 4500
3-24
The 4500 is set to address zero (0) at the factory, which allows operation in 
the standard point-to-point manner with a 4–20 mA output signal. To activate 
multidrop communication, the transmitter address must be changed to a 
number from 1 to 15. This change deactivates the 4–20 mA analog output, 
sending it to 4 mA. It also disables the failure mode alarm signal, which is 
controlled by the upscale/downscale switch position. Failure signals in 
multidropped transmitters are communicated through HART messages.
Changing a Transmitter 
Address
To activate multidrop communication, the transmitter poll address must be 
assigned a number from 1 to 15, and each transmitter in a multidropped loop 
must have a unique poll address.
HART Communicator
1. From the HOME screen, enter the fast key sequence for “Changing a 
Transmitter Address.”
AMS
Right click on the device and select “Configuration Properties” from the menu
.
1. In the “HART” tab, in “ID” box, enter poll address located in the “Poll 
addr” box, click Apply.
2. An “Apply Parameter Modification” screen appears, enter desired 
information and click OK.
3. After carefully reading the warning provided, select OK.
Communicating with a 
Multidropped 
Transmitter
HART Communicator
To communicate with a multidropped transmitter, configure the HART 
Communicator to poll for a non-zero address.
1. From the HOME screen, enter the fast key sequence for 
“Communicating with a Multidropped Transmitter.” 
2. On the polling menu, scroll down and select “Digital Poll.” In this mode, 
the HART Communicator automatically polls for devices at addresses 
0-15 upon start up.

Click on the HART modem icon and select “Scan All Devices.”
Polling a Multidropped 
Transmitter
Polling a multidropped loop determines the model, address, and number of 
transmitters on the given loop.
HART Communicator
1. From the HOME screen, enter the fast key sequence for “Polling a 
Multidropped Transmitter.”
