NOTE
No CHECK terminal is used for Fieldbus EJX 
multivariable transmitter. Do not connect the eld 
indicator and check meter.
Before using a Fieldbus conguration tool other 
than the existing host, conrm it does not affect the 
loop functionality in which all devices are already 
installed in operation. Disconnect the relevant 
control loop from the bus if necessary.
IMPORTANT
Connecting a Fieldbus conguration tool 
to a loop with its existing host may cause 
communication data scrambling resulting in a 
functional disorder or a system failure.
4.2  Host Setting
To activate Fieldbus, the following settings are 
required for the host. Set the available address 
range to cover the address set for EJX multivariable 
transmitter's.
IMPORTANT
Do not turn off the power immediately after 
setting. When the parameters are saved to the 
EEPROM, the redundant processing is executed 
for an improvement of reliability. If the power 
is turned off within 60 seconds after setting is 
made, the modied parameters are not saved 
and the settings may return to the original values.
Table 4.1  Operation Parameters
Symbol Parameter Description and Settings
V (ST) Slot-Time Indicates the time 
necessary for immediate 
reply of the device. Unit of 
time is in octets (256 μs).
Set maximum 
specication for all 
devices. For EJX, set a 
value of 4 or greater.
V (MID) Minimum-Inter-
PDU-Delay
Minimum value of 
communication data 
intervals. Unit of time is in 
octets (256 μs). Set the 
maximum specication for 
all devices. For EJX, set a 
value of 4 or greater.
V (MRD) Maximum-
Reply-Delay
The worst case time 
elapsed until a reply is 
recorded. The unit is 
Slot-time; set the value 
so that V (MRD) × V (ST) 
is the maximum value 
of the specication for 
all devices. For EJX, the 
setting must be a value of 
12 or greater.
V (FUN) First-Unpolled-
Node
Indicate the address next 
to the address range used 
by the host. Set 0 × 15 or 
greater.
V (NUN) Number-of-
consecutive-
