Quick Start: local
Local Operation
SITRANS LR560 carries out its level measurement tasks according to settings made via 
parameters. The settings can be modified locally using the Local Display Interface (LDI) 
which consists of an LCD display with push buttons, or using the LDI in combination with 
an infrared handheld programmer.
A Quick Start Wizard provides an easy step-by-step procedure to help you configure the 
device for a simple application. There are two ways to access the wizard:
• locally (see 
Quick Start Wizard via the LDI push buttons 
 on page 36 or 
Quick Start 
Wizard via the handheld programmer 
 on page 36)
• from a remote location (See 
Quick Start Wizard via AMS Device Manager
 on 
page 46)
See 
Level application example 
 on page 40 for an illustration, and for the complete range 
of parameters, see 
Parameter Reference 
 on page 86.
Activating SITRANS LR560
Power up the device. At initial startup, SITRANS LR560 will not begin measurements and 
all blocks will be Out of Service until the instrument has been configured
1)
. Completing 
the Quick Start Wizard or writing any configuration parameter via the local user interface 
causes the device to begin measuring. The Resource Block (RES) and Level Transducer 
Block (LTB) will move to Automatic mode
2)
. 
A transition screen showing first the Siemens logo and then the current firmware revision 
is displayed while the first measurement is being processed. 
The first time the device is configured you will be prompted to select a language (English, 
German, French, Spanish or Chinese). To change the language again, see Language (7.) 
on page 122. 
Notes:
• To enter Program mode using the push buttons, press  . Press   to return to 
Measurement mode. 
• To toggle between Measurement and Program Mode using the handheld 
programmer, press Mode  .
1)
See 
To configure a device via the local user interface 
 on page 35. (To configure using 
a network configuration tool see 
Quick Start Wizard via AMS Device Manager 
 on 
page 46.)
2)
AIFB 1 and AIFB 2 will remain Out of Service (as displayed on the LCD). These blocks 
can only be configured and scheduled using a network configuration tool. For more 
details, see System Integration in manual 
Foundation Fieldbus for Level Instruments 
(7ML19985MP01).
