Description
The 4310 wireless position monitor is a non‐contacting wireless position switch. It is a rugged measurement device
that provides a wireless on/off feedback signal to indicate equipment position. The 4310 can be used to monitor the
on/off status of equipment such as valves, sliding‐stem regulators, displacement and float level sensors, and relief
valves. It is designed to be simple to use, compact, and easily mounted.
The wireless position monitor periodically reads the on/off position of a measured device and transmits that data over
the wireless network. The transmitted data includes two limit switch status indications, internal device temperature,
and power module voltage. It also checks for configuration and service instructions from host systems such as
distributed control systems (DCS), asset management systems (AMS), and supervisory control and data acquisition
(SCADA) systems.
Terminology
Local Interface—All 4310 wireless position monitors come standard with a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) and two (2)
pushbuttons. The local interface provides the capability to setup and calibrate the monitor.
Magnet Assembly—This is the feedback component that is mounted directly to the valve stem. It supplies a magnetic
field that is sensed by the wireless position monitor. This component is typically part of most mounting kit assemblies.

Valve / Actuator Mounting
If ordered as a part of a control valve assembly, the factory will mount the wireless position monitor on the actuator
and calibrate the instrument. If you purchased the wireless position monitor separately, you will need a mounting kit
to mount the wireless position monitor on the actuator. The following procedures are general guidelines you should
consider when mounting the wireless position monitor. See the instructions that come with the mounting kit for
detailed information on mounting the wireless position monitor to a specific actuator model.
Note
All mounting materials should be non-ferrous. Ferrous materials are magnetic and may affect feedback.
The feedback system for the 4310 wireless position monitor utilizes a magnetic field for true linkage‐less,
non‐contacting position measurement. In order to prevent inadvertent stem movement while the instrument is in
operation magnetic tools (such as a magnetic‐tipped screwdriver) should not be used.
CAUTION
The magnet material has been specifically chosen to provide a long‐term stable magnetic field. However, as with any
magnet, care must be taken when handling the magnet assembly. Another high powered magnet placed in close proximity
(less than 25 mm) can cause permanent damage. Potential sources of damaging equipment include, but are not limited to:
transformers, DC motors, stacking magnet assemblies.
CAUTION
General Guidelines for use of High Power Magnets with Position Monitoring Instruments
Use of high power magnets in close proximity to any position monitoring instrument which is operating a process should
be avoided. Regardless of the model, high power magnets can affect feedback accuracy. Technicians should avoid the use
of high power magnets in close proximity with any position monitoring instrument.
Use of Magnetic Tools with the 4310
D Magnetic Tip Screw Drivers – Magnetic tip screw drivers can be used to work on the 4310.
However, they should not be brought in close proximity to the magnet assembly
(located at the back of the instrument) during process operations.
Note
As a general rule, do not use less than 50% of the magnet assembly for full travel measurement. Performance will decrease as the
assembly is increasingly subranged.
The linear magnet assemblies have a valid travel range indicated by arrows molded into the piece. This means that the Hall sensor
(on the back of the 4310 housing) has to remain within this range throughout the entire valve travel. See figure 8.
The linear magnet assemblies are symmetrical. Either end may be up.

1. Attach the mounting bracket to the actuator.
2. Loosely attach the feedback pieces and magnet assembly to the valve stem connector. Do not tighten the fasteners
because fine adjustment is required.
CAUTION
Do not install a magnet assembly that is shorter than the physical travel of the actuator. Loss of control will result from the
magnet assembly moving outside the range of the index mark in the feedback slot of the 4310 housing.
3. Center the magnet assembly inside the retaining slot 5.7 mm (0.22 inch) away from the bottom base of the
housing, as measured from the center of the assembly bolt holes to the base of the housing (see figure 10).
4. Align the magnet assembly as shown in figure 10.

holes may be used for linear actuators. See figure 11.
7. Once the instrument is mounted perform the local interface calibration procedure, as described on page 22. Verify
the magnet assembly position through the entire range before putting into service.
Guidelines for Mounting on Quarter‐Turn (Rotary‐Shaft) Actuators
The 4310 wireless position monitor can be mounted to any quarter‐turn (rotary‐shaft) actuator, as well as those that
comply with the NAMUR guidelines. A mounting bracket and associated hardware are required. Refer to figure 12.
Before mounting, verify the rotary motion is 45 to 90 degrees of rotation.
1. Attach the magnet assembly to the actuator shaft, as shown in figure 13. Position the magnet assembly 19.5 mm
(0.77 inch) away from the bottom base of the housing as measured from the base of the assembly to the base of the
housing.
At mid‐travel, the flats on the magnet assembly must be parallel to the channel on the back of the 4310 housing, as
shown in figure 14.

Communication Connections
A HART communicating device, such as a 475 or 375 Field Communicator, interfaces with the 4310 wireless position
monitor. Convenient termination points are located inside the front cover, as shown in figure 2. The
polarity-insensitive connection pins provide access to the Maintenance Port defined in the WirelessHART
specifications. This port must be turned on from the local user interface by selecting SETUP, HANDHELD:ON before
digital communication can commence.
Wireless Communications
Devices in a WirelessHART network are time synchronized and send their data to the gateway at selectable update
rates. The update rates of the device have an effect on the number that the gateway can service. For example, if each
device sent an update once per minute the gateway could support 100 devices.
Battery powered devices conserve energy by only sensing and transmitting data at the selectable update rate. The
faster the update rate the the lower the life span of a power module. Figures 15, 16, 17, and 18 show the correlation
between power module life and update/sample rate, the number of sub-devices, and temperature, respectively.
Continuous updates is the default communication method as shipped, however, the 4310 can be configured to allow
position feedback sampling at faster than the default update rate. The is useful in certain applications; for example,
when used with relief valve monitoring. When using the standard and extended life battery sourced power modules,
sample rates can be set to as fast as 0.5 second sampling. When using the external power option, the sampling rate is
set to approximately 20 times per second.
Faster sampling affects power module life as shown in figures 15 and 16. Refer to Advanced Wireless Reporting
(Report By Exception and Delayed Trigger Reporting) on page 27 for additional information on faster sampling.

The primary function of the local user interface is for calibration. However, information for checking the status of the
device, as well as the connected equipment or valve, is also available through the local user interface.
Note
The valve must move from open to closed, or vice versa, in order for the wireless position monitor to be calibrated. Attempting to
calibrate the device without moving the valve will result in the action being discarded. The operation of the device will be
unchanged.
The calibration function of the local user interface can be locked out from the HART master for security purposes.
The two buttons on the LCD display (see figure 19) are used to activate the display when the LCD is in the sleep state
(blank or off). The buttons can be pressed alone or simultaneously. The Emerson logo will display when the LCD is
activated from a HART “squawk” command. Refer to Accessing Features, Service Tools / Maintenance: Find on page 38
for additional information.
When navigating the interface the left button is generally used to “SELECT” or take an action, the right button is used
to go to the “NEXT” option. Refer to figure 19 for the local interface flow chart.
Identifying Device Revision
To identify the device revision when the device is in the sleep state, press the right button. Device revision 1 is
indicated as 1.10, device revision 2 is indicated as 2.10.
Language Selection
Pressing both buttons activates the language selection menu. Press the right button “NEXT” to scroll to the desired
language, then press the left button to “SELECT” the language.
Quick Position
Pressing the left button only when the screen is in the sleep state activates the QUICK POSITION display. The position
of the valve (OPEN, PARTIALLY OPEN, and CLOSED) is shown. The display will turn off automatically after 4 seconds.
Status
Pressing the right button only activates the STATUS menu. The STATUS menu contains information about the device,
including the status of the power module, the network operating parameters, and the state of the network interface. It
also allows device calibration and enables turning on/off the local HART port (located inside the cover) used with a
handheld device, such as a 475 or 375 Field Communicator.
Power
The power status menu is entered from the STATUS menu by pressing SELECT. Press SELECT to see the voltage of the
power module. Press NEXT to display the estimated remaining life of the power module.
Note
The estimated remaining life is only available for a battery-powered device. The Life menu is not available when the External Power
option is installed.
