2.5
Product safety
This measuring device is designed in accordance with good engineering practice to meet
state-of-the-art safety requirements, has been tested, and left the factory in a condition in
which it is safe to operate.
It meets general safety standards and legal requirements. It also complies with the EC
directives listed in the device-specific EC Declaration of Conformity. Endress+Hauser
confirms this by affixing the CE mark to the device.
Process display unit RIA15 is integrated in the 4 to 20 mA/HART® loop and transmits the
measuring signal in digital form. The process display unit does not require an external
power supply. It is powered directly from the current loop.
In connection with the radar level sensor Micropilot FMR20, the RIA15 can be used to
make the basic settings for the Micropilot FMR20. As a prerequisite the RIA15 must be
ordered with the respective option for the FMR20 basic setting.
The device meets the requirements of the HART® Communication Protocol Specifications
and can be used with devices with HART® Revision ≥ 5.0.
3.2
Operating modes
The process display unit can be used in two different operating modes:
4 to 20 mA mode:
In this operating mode, the process display unit is incorporated into the 4 to 20 mA
current loop and measures the transmitted current. The variable calculated based on the
current value and range limits is displayed in digital form on the 5-digit LCD. In addition,
the associated unit and a bar graph can be displayed.
HART mode:
The device functions as a display unit even when operating with a HART® sensor/actuator.
In this case, the display is also powered from the current loop.
The process display unit can choose to function as a primary master or secondary master
(default) in the HART® loop. When it functions as a master, the device can read process
values from the measuring device and display them. HART® communication operates on
the principle of master/slave. As a general rule, the sensor/actuator is a slave and only
transmits information if a request has been made by the master.
A HART® loop can have a maximum of two HART® masters at any one time. A distinction
is made between primary (e.g. the control system) and secondary master (e.g. handheld
terminal for on-site operation of the measuring devices) for these HART® masters. The
two masters in the loop/in the network cannot be masters of the same type, e.g. they
cannot be two "secondary masters".
If a third HART® master is added to the network, one of the other masters must be
disabled; otherwise a collision occurs in the network.
If the process display unit is operating as "secondary master" and another "secondary
master", e.g. a handheld device, is added to the network, the device interrupts HART®
communication as soon as it detects that there is another "secondary master". The display
alternates between error message C970 "Multi master collision" and "- - -". A measured
value is not displayed in this case. The device leaves the HART® loop for 30 seconds and
tries to re-establish HART® communication once again. Once the additional "secondary
master" is removed from the network, the device continues communication and displays
the measured values of the sensor/actuator once more.
Please note that if two process display units are to be used in a multidrop connection,
one device must be configured as "primary master" and the other as "secondary master"
to prevent a master collision.
In HART mode, the process display unit can show up to four device variables of a
multivariable measuring device. These variables are referred to as the Primary Variable
(PV), Secondary Variable (SV), Tertiary Variable (TV) and Quaternary Variable (QV). These
variables are placeholders for measured values that can be called up using HART®
communication.
For a flowmeter, such as the Promass, these four values can be as follows:
• Primary process variable (PV) →Mass flow
• Secondary process variable (SV) → Totalizer 1
• Third process variable (TV) → Density
• Fourth process variable (QV) → Temperature
The HART® section at the end of these Operating Instructions provides examples of these
four device variables for multivariable measuring devices → 62.
Please refer to the Operating Instructions for each device for details on the variables
that are set as default on the sensor/actuator and how they can be changed.
The process display unit can show each of these values. The individual values must be
activated in the SETUP – HART1 to HART4 menu for this purpose. The individual
parameters are assigned to fixed process variables in the device in this case:
HART1 = PV
HART2 = SV
HART3 = TV
HART4 = QV
For example, if the PV and TV are to be displayed on the process display unit, HART1 and
HART3 must be activated.
The values can either be shown alternately on the process display unit or one value is
displayed continuously and the other values are only shown by pressing '+' or '–'. The
switching time can be configured in the "EXPRT" – "SYSTM" – "TOGTM" menu.
3.2.1
RIA15 as a remote display and for operation of the Micropilot
FMR20
The Micropilot is a "downward-looking" measuring system, operating based on the time-of-
flight method (ToF). It measures the distance from the reference point (process
connection) to the product surface. Radar impulses are emitted by an antenna, reflected
off the product surface and received again by the radar system.
The FMR20 can be adjusted under the "SETUP → LEVEL" menu (see operating matrix). The
measured value displayed corresponds to the distance measured or, if linearization is
enabled, to a percentage value.

Flow rate at measuring weirs or channels (calculated from the level using linearization)
The reflected radar impulses are received by the antenna and transmitted into the
electronics. A microprocessor evaluates the signal and identifies the level echo caused by
the reflection of the radar impulse at the product surface. This clear signal detection
system benefits from over 30 years' experience with time-of-flight procedures.
The distance D to the product surface is proportional to the time of flight t of the impulse:
D = c · t/2,
where c is the speed of light.
Based on the known empty distance E, the level L is calculated:
L = E – D
Output
The Micropilot is adjusted by entering the empty distance E (= zero point) and the
full distance F (= span).
• Current output: 4 to 20 mA
• Digital output (HART, SmartBlue): 0 to 10 m (0 to 33 ft) or 0 to 20 m (0 to 66 ft)
depending on antenna version
The RIA15 can be used as a local display unit and for the basic configuration of the
Micropilot FMR20 radar level sensor via HART®.

on the front of the RIA15:
• Unit
• Empty and full calibration
• Mapping area if the measured distance does not match the actual distance
Further information on the operating parameters → 39
The process display unit has one analog 4 to 20 mA input. In "HART" operating mode, this
channel can be used for measuring and displaying HART® values for a connected sensor/
actuator. In this case, a HART® device can be directly connected to the process display unit
in a point-to-point connection or the process display unit can be incorporated in a HART®
multidrop network.
The RIA15 can be used as a local display unit and for the basic configuration of the
Micropilot FMR20 radar level sensor via HART®.
The nameplate is located on the right-hand side of the housing in the case of the field
device, and on the rear of the housing in the case of the panel-mounted device.

Wiring with switchable backlighting
An additional current-limited current source is required to implement switchable
backlighting, e.g. active barrier RN221N. This current source is used to supply the LED
backlighting of up to 7 RIA15 process display units without causing an additional voltage
drop in the measurement loop. The backlighting can be switched on and off using an
external switch.
The following shows connection examples for the hazardous area. Wiring is similar
for the non-hazardous area; however, it is not necessary to use Ex-certified devices.

Shielding and grounding
Optimum electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) can only be guaranteed if the system
components and, in particular, the lines are shielded and the shield forms as complete a
cover as possible. A shield coverage of 90% is ideal.
• To ensure an optimum EMC protective effect when communicating with HART®, connect
the shield as often as possible to the reference ground.
• For reasons of explosion protection, you should refrain from grounding however.
To comply with both requirements, three different types of shielding are possible when
communicating with HART®:
• Shielding at both ends
• Shielding at one end on the feed side with capacitance termination at the field device
• Shielding at one end on the feed side
Experience shows that the best results with regard to EMC are achieved in most cases in
installations with one-sided shielding on the feed side (without capacitance termination at
the field device). Appropriate measures with regard to input wiring must be taken to allow
unrestricted operation when EMC interference is present. These measures have been
taken into account for this device. Operation in the event of disturbance variables as per
NAMUR NE21 is thus guaranteed. Where applicable, national installation regulations and
guidelines must be observed during the installation! Where there are large differences in
potential between the individual grounding points, only one point of the shielding is
connected directly with the reference ground. In systems without potential equalization,
therefore, cable shielding of fieldbus systems should only be grounded on one side, for
example at the supply unit or at safety barriers.
NOTICE
If the shielding of the cable is grounded at more than one point in systems without
potential matching, power supply frequency equalizing currents can occur that
damage the signal cable or have a serious effect on signal transmission.
‣ In such cases the shielding of the signal cable is to be grounded on one side only, i.e. it
must not be connected to the ground terminal of the housing. The shield that is not
connected should be insulated!

Degree of protection
6.8.1
Field housing
The devices meet all the requirements of IP67. It is absolutely essential to comply with the
following points to ensure this protection is guaranteed after mounting or servicing the
device:
• The housing seal must be clean and undamaged when inserted into the groove. The seal
must be cleaned, dried or replaced if necessary.
• The cables used for connection must be of the specified outside diameter (e.g. M16 x
1.5, cable diameter 5 to 10 mm (0.2 to 0.39 in)).
• Mount the measuring device in such a way that the cable entries point downwards.
• Replace unused cable entries with dummy plugs.
• The housing cover and the cable entries must be firmly tightened.
6.8.2
Panel housing
The front of the device meets the requirements of IP65. It is absolutely essential to comply
with the following points to ensure this protection is guaranteed after mounting or
servicing the device:
• The seal between the front of the housing and the panel must be clean and undamaged.
The seal must be cleaned, dried or replaced if necessary.
• The threaded rods of the panel mounting clips must be firmly tightened.

The operating functions of the process display unit are divided into the following menus.
The individual parameters and settings are described in the "Commissioning" section.
If the operating menu is disabled by means of a user code, the individual menus and
parameters can be displayed but not changed. To change a parameter, the user code
must be entered. As the display unit can only display digits in the 7-segment display
and not alphanumeric characters, the procedure for number parameters is different to
that for text parameters.
If the operating position contains only numbers as parameters, the operating position
is displayed in the 14-segment display and the configured parameter is displayed in
the 7-segment display. To edit, press the 'E'-button followed by the user code.
If the operating position contains text parameters, only the operating position is
initially displayed in the 14-segment display. If the 'E' button is pressed again, the
configured parameter is displayed in the 14-segment display. To edit, press the '+'
button followed by the user code.

Other diagnostics in the HART® mode
The process display unit has an integrated HART® diagnostics function. This function can
be used to estimate the HART® signal level, the applicable communication resistance, and
the noise of the network.
The display unit can measure and display the following values:

Measuring the transmission signal level "Tx":
The Tx measurement can be used to assess the signal level of the transmission signal.
Ideally this should be between 200 mV and 800 mV . The following values are displayed:
Tx
< 120 mV

Measuring the received signal level "Rx":
The Rx measurement can be used to assess the signal level of the received signal. Ideally
this should be between 200 mV and 800 mV .
The Rx signal value that is displayed is a filtered signal level as assessed by the process
display unit. In this way, the value measured externally and the displayed value can differ
from one another, for example in the case of a trapezoidal received signal.
The following values are displayed:
Rx
< 120 mV
120 to 200 mV
200 to 800 mV
800 to 850 mV

Measuring the "NOISE" interference signal:
When the interference signal level is measured, the interference signal determined is
divided into three categories:
LO = low
MED = medium
HIGH = high
The noise measurement is also a filtered signal level as assessed by the process display
unit. The value measured externally and the displayed value can therefore differ from one
another, depending on the frequency and the form of the signal.
With low wanted signal levels (Rx, Tx), transmission errors can occur even if the
interference signal level is low ("LO" displayed).
Measuring the communication resistance "Rc":
The "Rc" measurement can be used to determine the network resistance of the HART®
network. Ideally this should be between 230 Ω and 600 Ω .
The network resistance is the sum of the HART® communication resistance, the
device's input resistance, the transmission line resistance and line capacitance.
The following values are displayed:
Rc
< 100 Ω
100 to 230 Ω
230 to 600 Ω

Association for Standards for Control and Regulation in the Chemical Industry
HART® (Highway Addressable Remote Transducer) is a well-established industry standard
worldwide that has been tried and tested in the field and has an installed base of over 14
million devices.
HART® is a "smart" technology which enables 4 to 20 mA analog transmission and digital
communication simultaneously on the same two wires. The HART® protocol is based on
the Bell 202 Frequency Shift Keying standard (FSK). A high-frequency wave (±0.5 mA) is
superimposed on the low-frequency analog signal (4 to 20 mA). Maximum transmission
distances depend on the network structure and ambient conditions.
In many applications, the HART® signal is only used for configuration. However, using the
appropriate tools, HART® can be used for device monitoring, device diagnostics and
recording multivariable process information.
The HART® communication protocol operates on the principle of master/slave. This means
that each communication activity is initiated by the master during normal operation.
Unlike other master/slave communication types, HART® allows two masters in one loop/
network: a primary master, e.g. the control system, and a secondary master, e.g. a
handheld terminal. However, two masters of the same type are not permitted
simultaneously. Secondary master devices can be used without affecting communication to
and from the primary master. The field devices are generally the HART® slaves and
respond to HART® commands from the master sent directly to them or to other devices.
The HART® specification defines that master devices send voltage signals, while the
sensors/actors (slaves) convey their messages using load-independent currents. The
current signals are converted to voltage signals at the internal resistance of the receiver (at
its load).
To ensure reliable signal reception, the HART® protocol specifies the total load of the
current loop - including the cable resistance - to be between minimum 230 Ω and
maximum 600 Ω. If the resistance is less than 230 Ω, the digital signal is extremely
damped or short-circuited. HART® communication resistance is thus always required in the
4 to 20 mA cable for a low-impedance supply.
15.1
HART® protocol command classes
Each command is assigned to one of the following three classes:
• Universal commands
supported by all devices using the HART® protocol (e.g. device designation, firmware no.
etc.)
• Standard commands (common practice commands)
Offer functions which are supported by many but not by all HART® instruments (e.g.
read out value, parameter configuration etc.)
• Device specific commands
Provide access to device data which are not HART® standard but rather unique to a
particular device type (e.g. linearization, extended diagnostic functions)
The HART® protocol is an open communication protocol which interfaces the master
device with the field device and can be implemented by any manufacturer and freely
employed by the user. The required technical support is provided by the HART®
Communication Foundation (HCF).
HART® commands used
The process display unit uses the following HART® universal commands:
Universal command number
Response data used
0
Device unique identifier
The device identifier provides information on the device and
manufacturer; it cannot be changed.
The response comprises a 12-byte device identifier.
The following bytes are used by the process display unit:
• Byte 0: Fixed value 254
• Byte 2: Device type ID, for slave addressing with long address form
• Byte 3: Number of preambles
• Byte 9-11: Device identification, for slave addressing with long
address form
2
Read the primary process variable as
current in mA and percentage of
current range
The response comprises 8 bytes:
• Byte 0-3: Current in mA
• Byte 4-7: Percentage value
3
Read the primary process variable as
current in mA and four dynamic
process variables
The response comprises 24 bytes:
The following bytes are used by the process display unit:
• Byte 4: HART® unit code of the primary process variable
• Byte 5-8: Primary process variable
• Byte 9: HART® unit code of the secondary process variable
• Byte 10-13: Secondary process variable
• Byte 14: HART® unit code of the third process variable
• Byte 15-18: Third process variable
• Byte 19: HART® unit code of the fourth process variable
• Byte 20-23: Fourth process variable
The universal commands used by the process display unit must be supported by the slaves
to ensure proper communication.

The field device status is contained in the second data byte of a slave/actor response.
The following bits are analyzed by the process indicator and displayed as a diagnostic

The process display unit can be configured in such a way that the unit code which is sent
from the slave in response to the universal command no. 3, is displayed as text, as listed in
the following table (HCF-SPEC 183).
However, since the field available for the unit is limited in the process indicator to a 5-
digit, 14-segment display, it is not possible to display all units completely. Therefore, some
units are displayed as unit codes in the form of UCxxx, where xxx is the unit code number.
In addition, the operating parameter TEXT can be used to create and display an individual
unit text.

HART® protocol connection types
The HART protocol can be used for point-to-point or multidrop connections:
Point-to-point (TYPICAL)
In point-to-point mode, the HART® master is connected with exactly one HART® slave.
A point-to-point connection should always be the preferred option where possible.
Multidrop (measurement not by current, slower)
In multidrop mode, several HART® devices are incorporated in a single current loop.
Analog signal transmission is disabled in this case and data and measured values are
exchanged exclusively via the HART® protocol. The current output of each connected
device is set to a fixed value of 4 mA and is only used to supply current to two-wire
devices.
Several sensors/actors can be connected in parallel to one wire pair in multidrop mode.
The master then differentiates between devices based on the configured addresses. Each
device must have a different address. If more than 7 sensors/actors are connected in
parallel an increased voltage drop occurs.
The loop must not include a mixture of devices with an active current output (e.g. four-
wire devices) and devices with a passive current output (e.g. two-wire devices).
The HART® protocol is immune to interference. This means that, during operation,
communication devices can be connected or removed without putting components of the
other devices at risk or interrupting their communication.
Device variables for multivariable devices
Multivariable measuring devices can transmit up to four device variables via HART®: the
Primary Variable (PV), Secondary Variable (SV), Tertiary Variable (TV) and Quaternary
Variable (QV).
Below you will find some examples of what default values can be set for these variables for
various sensors/actors:
Flowmeter, e.g. Promass:
• Primary process variable (PV) -> Mass flow
• Secondary process variable (SV) -> Totalizer 1
• Third process variable (TV) -> Density
• Fourth process variable (QV) -> Temperature
Temperature transmitter, e.g. TMT82:
• Primary process variable (PV) -> Sensor 1
• Secondary process variable (SV) -> Device temperature
• Third process variable (TV) -> Sensor 1
• Fourth process variable (QV) -> Sensor 1
For a level measuring device such as the Levelflex FMP5x, these four values can be as
follows:
Level measurement:
• Primary process variable (PV) → Level linearized
• Secondary process variable (SV) → Distance
• Third process variable (TV) → Absolute echo amplitude
• Fourth process variable (QV) → Relative echo amplitude
Interface measurement:
• Primary process variable (PV) → Interface
• Secondary process variable (SV) → Level linearized
• Third process variable (TV) → Upper interface thickness
• Fourth process variable (QV) → Relative interface amplitude
HART® actor, e.g. positioner:
• Primary process variable (PV) -> Actuating value
• Secondary process variable (SV) -> Valve set point
• Third process variable (TV) -> Target position
• Fourth process variable (QV) -> Valve position
