2.1 Introduction
In a typical Rosemount Tank Gauging system, a Rosemount 2460 System Hub is used to collect
measurement data and status information from various field devices. A standard installation
includes a 2460 System Hub connected to a number of Rosemount 2410 Tank Hubs which
collect measurement data and status information from the field devices.
The 2460 buffers measurement data and status information from one or more tanks, and sends
the information to a TankMaster PC, or other host system, whenever the 2460 receives a request
for data.
