INTRODUCTION
The 475 Field Communicator Getting Started Guide provides basic guidelines,
precautions, and setup information for the 475 Field Communicator. It does not provide
in-depth instructions for configuration, diagnostics, maintenance, service,
troubleshooting, or Intrinsically Safe (IS) installations. Refer to the 475 Field
Communicator User’s Manual on the Resource CD or www.fieldcommunicator.com for
more instructions.
The 475 Field Communicator supports HART and FOUNDATION fieldbus devices, letting
you configure or troubleshoot in the field. Electronic Device Description Language
(EDDL) technology enables the 475 Field Communicator to communicate with a
variety of devices independent of device manufacturer.
WARNING
Explosions could result in serious injury or death:
Use in an explosive environment must be in accordance with the appropriate local,
national, and international standards, codes, and practices. Please review the
Reference Information and Product Certifications sections of the 475 Field
Communicator User’s Manual for any restrictions associated with safe use.
Electrical shock can result in serious injury or death.
WARNING
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2)
this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation.

475 FIELD COMMUNICATOR OVERVIEW
The portable 475 Field Communicator includes a color LCD touch screen, a Lithium
Ion battery (Power Module), a SH3 processor, memory components, and integral
communication and measurement circuitry.
When using the 475 Field Communicator to communicate with devices, follow all
standards and procedures applicable to the location. Failure to comply may result in
equipment damage and/or personal injury. Understand and comply with the sections in
this manual.
Working in a Hazardous Area
An Intrinsically Safe (IS-approved) 475 Field Communicator can be used in Zone 0
(FM and CSA only), Zone 1, or Zone 2, for Group IIC, and Class I, Division 1 and
Division 2, Groups A, B, C, and D locations.
An IS-approved 475 Field Communicator may be connected to loops or segments that
are attached to equipment located in Zone 0, Zone 1, Zone 2, for Group IIC; Zone 20,
Zone 21, Zone 22, and Class I, Division 1 and Division 2, Groups A, B, C, and D
locations.
IS-approved 475 Field Communicators are ordered with the KL option and have an
additional label on the back of the communicator that lists the approvals.
CAUTION
You can install or remove the Li-Ion battery in a hazardous area environment. You
cannot charge the battery in this environment because the power supply/charger
(00375-0003-0005) is not IS-approved.
Using the Touch Screen and Keypad
The touch screen and keypad let you select menu items and enter text. Tap the screen
with the provided stylus or use the up and down arrow keys on the keypad to select a
menu item. See Figure 1 for the location of the stylus. Double-tap the selected item on
the screen or press the right arrow key on the keypad to open a menu item.
CAUTION
Contact the touch screen using blunt items only, preferably the stylus included with the
475 Field Communicator. Sharp instruments, such as screwdrivers, can damage the
touch screen and void the warranty. Repairing the touch screen requires replacement
of the entire display assembly, which is possible only at an authorized service center.

Battery and Power Supply/Charger
Understand and follow the precautions below before using your battery or power
supply/charger.
• Protect the battery and power supply/charger from moisture, and respect operating
and storage temperature limits. See the 475 Field Communicator User’s Manual for
temperature limits.
• Do not cover the battery or power supply/charger, subject it to prolonged periods of
direct sunlight, or place it upon or next to heat-sensitive materials.
• Charge the battery with only the power supply/charger. The power supply/charger
should not be used with other products. Failure to comply may permanently damage
your 475 Field Communicator and void the IS approval and the warranty.
• Do not open or modify the battery or power supply/charger. There are no
user-serviceable components or safety elements inside. Opening or modifying them
will void the warranty and could cause personal harm.
• Follow all applicable regulations when transporting a Li-Ion battery.
Charging the Battery
Prior to first portable use, fully charge the Li-Ion battery. The power supply/charger has
a green connector to match the connector on the battery. The battery can be charged
separately or while attached to the 475 Field Communicator. A full charge takes
approximately two to three hours, and the 475 is fully operable when charging. An
overcharge condition will not occur if power supply/charger remains connected after
charging completes.
To maintain performance, charge the battery frequently, preferably after each use. Limit
full discharges, if possible. Additional information about maintaining the battery is in the
475 Field Communicator User’s Manual.
Power Supply/Charger Lights
Three colored lights are on the power supply/charger to indicate the conditions below.
Each light displays a different color.
Color Condition
Green The battery is fully charged.
Flashing green The battery is nearly fully charged.
Amber The battery is charging.
Flashing amber The power supply/charger is not connected to the
475 Field Communicator.
Flashing amber and red The remaining charge in the battery is low.
Red Charging cannot occur. Contact Technical Support for
more information.

Installing the System Card and Battery 7
Figure 2. Back of the 475 Field Communicator
INSTALLING THE SYSTEM CARD AND BATTERY
1. Remove the protective rubber boot, if attached.
2. Place the 475 Field Communicator face down on a level, secure surface.
3. With the battery removed, slide the Secure Digital System Card (labeled System
Card), with the card contacts facing up, into the System Card socket until it clicks.
See Figure 2. The System Card socket is spring-loaded.
CAUTION
The System Card must be supplied by the 475 Field Communicator manufacturer.
Failure to comply will void the IS approval.
4. With the 475 Field Communicator still face down, ensure the two battery retaining
screws are loose.
5. Align the battery with the sides of 475 Field Communicator, and carefully slide the
battery forward until it is secure.
CAUTION
The connector pins may be damaged if the battery and 475 Field Communicator are
improperly aligned.
6. Carefully hand tighten the two battery retaining screws. (Do not over tighten, 0.5Nm
maximum torque load.) The tops of the screws should be nearly flush with the 475
Field Communicator.
