Configuration
Overview :
This section contains information on configuration and verification that should be performed prior to installation. Field
Communicator and AMS Device Manager instructions are given to perform configuration functions.
2.2 Bench top configuration
Bench top configuration consists of testing the transmitter and verifying transmitter configuration data. The device must be
configured before installation outside hazardous area, with the certified Trex Device Communicator whom output parameters
are intrinsically safe, either directly or remotely. Direct configuration can be performed using a Field Communicator, AMS
Device Manager, AMS Wireless Configurator, or any WirelessHART® Communicator. Remote configuration can be performed
using AMS Device Manager, AMS Wireless Configurator, or the Wireless Gateway.
The associated apparatus must be powered to provide power to the Appleton Motion Sensor for configuration. To communicate
to the transmitter, begin by opening the hood of the luminaire if mounted. This will expose the HART® communication
terminals located on the driver housing beside two other terminal Block. Next, connect the Field Communicator leads to the
HART terminal block.
FIGURE: FIELD COMMUNICATOR CONNECTIONS
Field Communicator :
The associated apparatus inside the luminaire housing must be powered for the Field Communicator to interface with the
transmitter. The Field Communicator connections are located on terminal block mounted on driver housing of Luminaire. To
communicate to the transmitter, begin by opening the hood of the luminaire if mounted. This will expose the HART®
communication terminals located on the driver housing beside two other terminal Block. Next, connect the Field Communicator
leads to the HART terminal block. Field communication with this device requires a HART-based Field Communicator.
AMS Device Manager and AMS Wireless Configurator :
When configuring product using AMS Device Manager or AMS Wireless Configurator, double click the Appleton Motion Sensor
device icon (or right click and select Con/Setup), then select the Configure Menu. AMS configuration changes are implemented
when the Apply button is clicked.
During direct connection configuration, AMS Device Manager will search for a HART- compatible device and indicate when the
connection is made. If AMS Device Manager fails to connect, it indicates that no device was found.
Emerson Wireless Gateway:
The Appleton Motion Sensor supports limited remote configuration through the Wireless Gateway. The Gateway allows
configuration of the following device parameters: HART Tag, Short Tag, Descriptor, Engineering Units, Update Rate etc.
Default settings
The Appleton Motion Sensor default configuration is shown below:
