3 1 This instruction manual includes specifications, installation, operating, and maintenance information for FIELDVUEDLC3010 Digital Level instruction manual supports the 475 Field Communicator or the AMS Trex Device Communicator with devicedescription revision 4, used with DLC3010 instruments with firmware revision 8. You can obtain information about theprocess, instrument, or sensor using the Field Communicator. Contact your Emerson sales office or Local BusinessPartner to obtain the appropriate Suite: Intelligent Device Manager can also be used to calibrate and configure the DLC3010 , and to obtain information aboutthe process, instrument, or not install, operate, or maintain a DLC3010 Digital Level Controller without being fully trained and qualified ininstrument, valve, actuator, and accessory installation, operation, and maintenance.

4 To avoid personal injury orproperty damage, it is important to carefully read, understand, and follow all of the contents of this manual, includingall safety cautions and warnings. If you have any questions about these instructions, contact your Emerson sales officeor Local Business Used in this ManualThis manual describes using the Field Communicator to calibrate and configure the Digital Level that require the use of the Field Communicator have the text path and the sequence of numeric keysrequired to display the desired Field Communicator example, to access the Full Calibration menu:Field CommunicatorConfigure > Calibration > Primary > Full Calibration (2-4-1-2)Menu selections are shown in italics, , Calibrate. An overview of the Field Communicator menu structure is shownin Appendix Digital Level ControllersDLC3010 Digital Level controllers (figure 1 1) are used with Level sensors to measure liquid Level , the Level of interfacebetween two liquids, or liquid specific gravity (density).

This rotary motion is applied to the Digital Level Controller , transformedto an electrical signal and digitized. The Digital signal is compensated and processed per user configurationrequirements, and converted back to a 4 20 mA analog electrical signal. The resulting current output signal is sent toan indicating or final control 1 1. FIELDVUE DLC3010 Digital Level ControllerW7977-2 DLC3010 Digital Level controllers are communicating, microprocessor based Level , interface, or density sensinginstruments. In addition to the normal function of providing a 4 20 milliampere current signal, DLC3010 Digital levelcontrollers, using the HARTR communications protocol, give easy access to information critical to process can gain information from the process, the instrument, or the sensor using a Field Communicator with devicedescriptions (DDs) compatible with DLC3010 Digital Level controllers.

6 The Field Communicator may be connected atthe Digital Level Controller or at a field junction the Field Communicator, you can perform several operations with the DLC3010 Digital Level Controller . You caninterrogate, configure, calibrate, or test the Digital Level Controller . Using the HART protocol, information from thefield can be integrated into control systems or be received on a single loop Digital Level controllers are designed to directly replace standard pneumatic and electro pneumatic leveltransmitters. DLC3010 Digital Level controllers mount on a wide variety of caged and cageless 249 Level sensors. Theymount on other manufacturers' displacer type Level sensors through the use of mounting Caged Sensors (see table 1 6)D 249, 249B, 249BF, 249C, 249K, and 249L sensors side mount on the vessel with the displacer mounted inside a cageoutside the vessel.

7 (The 249BF caged sensor is available only in Europe, Middle East, and Africa.)249 Cageless Sensors (see table 1 7)D 249BP, 249CP, and 249P sensors top mount on the vessel with the displacer hanging down into the 249VS sensor side mounts on the vessel with the displacer hanging out into the 249W wafer style sensor mounts on top of a vessel or on a customer supplied for the DLC3010 Digital Level Controller are shown in table 1 1. Specifications for the 249 sensor areshown in table 1 3.
