Change
• Sensors that are not straight tube sensors are now correctly identified
• The mA Output fixed alert is now set
• The Factory Configuration Invalid status bit is now set correctly when connected to a 700 core processor — as the 700 core processor does not support saving and restoring the factory configuration
• Enabling a new feature on a flow-only device does not reset the output configuration to factory defaults
• Polled variables are now converted to the transmitter units before being used
• HART Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary Variables can be changed using
HART when the transmitter is configured for gas standard volume
• Petroleum measurement variables are removed from the display when petroleum measurement is disabled
• The mA Output can be fixed when assigned to a concentration measurement, petroleum measurement, or GSV variable when the transmitter is not connected to a core processor
• The units for concentration curve data are correctly converted when the data is entered using HART
• Meter verification failed and aborted alerts are now reflected in the HART
More Status flag
• The HART Squawk command is functional when the HART write protect is enabled
• Locking the transmitter, unlocking the transmitter, or changing write protection does not set the HART Configuration Changed flag
• If connected to a 700 core processor with software version 3.1 or earlier, there is no longer a core processor write failed alert when setting volume flow units to beer barrels per time unit
• The factory zero value is immediately updated from the core processor after running a zero calibration and saving the factory configuration
• A firmware upgrade done without clearing non-volatile memory no longer causes an EEPROM Failure alert
• The status bit for the undefined A141 alert (Device Data Capture Triggered) no longer appears in the Modbus status register
• When using AMS to configure the transmitter:
— Changing the output configuration for mA 1, mA 2, or the Frequency
Output, does not change the configuration of all three outputs
— mA configuration methods can be cancelled
— Density and temperature units display on the concentration measurement configuration page
— An AMS Field Device did not respond message no longer displays when the concentration offset is configured even though the value was changed
