Manufacturer-Specific Parameters
SOFT_SIMULATION_DISABLE: If set to yes, enabling of
simulation is disallowed regardless of the presence of the simu-
lation jumper, and the “simulation” indicator will be cleared in
the Block Error parameter. If set to no, simulation can only be
enabled if the simulation jumper is present which also sets the
“simulation” indicator in the Block Error parameter.
SERIAL_NUMBER: Read-only parameter that corresponds to
“Magnetrol Serial Number” in the Transducer Block.
FIRMWARE_VERSION: Read-only parameter that corre-
sponds to “Firmware Version” in the Transducer Block.
HARDWARE_VERSION: Read-only parameter that corre-
sponds to “Hardware Version” in the Transducer Block.
3.3 Transducer Block
e TRANSDUCER block contained within the Jupiter Model
JM4 FF transmitter is a custom block containing parameters
that are pertinent to the transmitter itself.
TRANSDUCER Block 1 (used for level and interface operation)
contains information such as the Configuration, Diagnostics,
Calibration data, output level and Status information.
TRANSDUCER Block 2 contains volume parameters.
e read-only parameters and read-write parameters within the
TB are grouped in a useful configuration.
• e read-only parameters report the block status and operation
modes.
• e read-write parameters affect the operation of the function
block and the transmitter itself.
NOTE: The TB will automatically be changed to “Out of Service” when
the local interface (keypad) is used to change a parameter
online. The TB must be manually placed back in service from
the Host System to resume operation.
3.3.1 Transducer Block Parameters
e first six parameters in the TRANSDUCER Block are
the universal parameters discussed in Section 3.1.1. After the
universal parameters, six additional parameters are required for
Transducer Blocks. e most notable of these parameters are
UPDATE_EVT and BLOCK_ALM. It should be noted that
these six additional parameters must exist but do not have to be
implemented.
An important device-specific parameter found later in the
TRANSDUCER Block list is DEVICE_STATUS, which dis-
plays the status of the device. If more than one message exists,
then the messages are displayed in priority order.
