Fluke 709 Instruction manual

Technical Data
Hart communications
The 709H adds HART communica-
tions and supports a select set of
the HART universal and common
practice commands. This makes
the 709H unique as both an
affordable, compact loop calibrator
and powerful HART communica-
tion troubleshooting tool.
In the communicator mode
the user will be able to read
basic device information, perform
diagnostic tests, and trim the mA
output on most HART enabled
transmitters. In the past, this could
only be done with a dedicated
communicator, a high-end mul-
tifunction calibrator, or a laptop
computer with HART modem.
Fluke 709H will allow virtually
any technician to service and sup-
port HART devices.
Saving time,
getting answers
In addition, the 709H offers:
•Logging of HART data in the
field. Once recorded by the
709H in the field, the 709H/
TRACK software can upload
the HART configuration of up
to (20) HART devices in your
plant and output data in either
(.csv) or (.txt) format.
•Data logged mA loop mea-
surements and HART data can
be recorded from a particular
transmitter for troubleshooting
and loop tuning. The data log
feature offers selectable cap-
ture with recording intervals
of 1 to 60 seconds and a log-
ging capacity of 9800 records
or 99 individual sessions.
Each data sample contains the
709H mA measurement, all
four process variables, and the
standard status conditions.
Fluke 709/709H
Precision Current
Loop Calibrator
with HART communication
The Fluke 709 and 709H mA loop calibrators are designed to save
time and produce high-quality results. These calibrators are built
around a user friendly interface with a Quick-Set rotary encoder
knob. This tool reduces the time it takes to measure, or source,
current and power up a loop. The protective holster easily ts into a
technician’s hand and the large backlit display is easy to read, even in
dark, cramped worked areas.
Fluke reliable. HART compatible.
Fluke puts HART communication in a
precision loop calibrator.

HART communication
The Fluke 709H offers a built-in HART modem for communication
capability to perform the following commands:
•Read message
•Read tag, descriptor, calibration date
•Read sensor PV information
•Read PV output information
•Read long tag
•Write PV ranges (upper and lower)
•Enter/exit fixed current mode
•Set zero offset
•Trim DAC zero (mA output 4 mA)
•Trim DAC gain (mA output 20 mA)
•The Fluke 709H also offers ability to store up to twenty HART
device configuration files for uploading via 709H/TRACK software.
via the 709H/TRACK software. Configurations can be stored as .csv
or .txt files. This allows the end user to document plant HART easily.
Configurations can be stored as .csv or .txt files. This feature gives
the technician direct access to key device parameters, allowing
better troubleshooting, calibrating and maintaining of plant assets.
