8. Open the Baud Rate list box to select a baud rate.
• Select 1200 baud for IFT9701, IFT9703, RFT9712, and RFT9729
transmitters.
• Select 1200 baud for RFT9739 transmitters configured for HART
Bell 202 communication.
• Select any baud rate for RFT9739 transmitters using HART or
Modbus RS-485 communication.
9. Comm Details shows the configured communications port and
communication hardware interrupt request line (IRQ). The port and
IRQ cannot be changed from the Configure Communications dialog
box, but must be configured in the ProLink setup routine. Follow
steps 1 through 3 to change the communications port and IRQ.
10.Select a Master Type option button. The available master types
depend on the protocol established when the software was installed:
• With the ProLink program configured for HART protocol (default),
select HART Primary or HART Secondary as the master type.
-
Select HART Primary to designate the ProLink program as the
primary master for the network. Choosing HART Primary
enables the ProLink program and a secondary master, such
as a Model 268 or 275, to communicate at the same time.
-
Select HART Secondary to designate the ProLink program as
the secondary master for the network. Choosing HART
Secondary enables a control system to serve as the primary
master.
