8.14.2 Changing the scroll rate
The scroll rate is used to control the speed of scrolling when auto scroll is enabled. Scroll rate defines
how long each display variable (see Section 8.14.4) will be shown on the display. The time period is
defined in seconds; e.g., if scroll rate is set to 10, each display variable will be shown on the display
for 10 seconds.
If you are using the Communicator to configure the transmitter, you must enable auto scroll before
you can configure scroll rate (see Section 8.14.1).
8.14.3 Changing the off-line password
The off-line password prevents unauthorized users from gaining access to the off-line menu.
The password can contain up to four numbers.
Note: If the petroleum measurement application is enabled on your transmitter, the off-line password
will be required for totalizer and inventory control from the display, even if the off-line password is
disabled.
If you are using the Communicator, you must enable the off-line password before you can configure it
(see Section 8.14.1).
8.14.4 Changing the display variables
The display can scroll through up to 15 process variables in any order. You can configure the process
variables to be displayed and the order in which they should appear. The first display variable is
permanently set to the process variable assigned to the primary mA output.
Table 8-8 shows an example of a display variable configuration. Notice that you can repeat variables,
and you can also specify None. For information on how the display variables will appear on the
display, see Appendix J.
Note: When you are configuring display variables, all defined special measurement units will be
listed, and can be selected.
