Verify the HART address of the transmitter.
Ensure that you have specified the correct COM port.
Check the physical connection between the PC and the transmitter.

C.2.4
Make a HART/RS-485 connection
You can connect directly to the RS-485 terminals on the transmitter or to any point on the
network.
CAUTION!
If the transmitter is in a hazardous area, do not connect directly to the transmitter terminals.
Connecting directly to the transmitter terminals requires opening the wiring compartment,
and opening the wiring compartment while the transmitter is powered up could cause an
explosion. To connect to the transmitter in a hazardous environment, use a connection
method that does not require opening the wiring compartment.
