Safety Guidelines
This manual contains notices you have to observe in order to ensure your personal safety, as well as to prevent
damage to property. The notices referring to your personal safety are highlighted in the manual by a safety alert
symbol, notices referring only to property damage have no safety alert symbol. These notices shown below are
graded according to the degree of danger.
Danger
indicates that death or severe personal injury will result if proper precautions are not taken.
Warning
indicates that death or severe personal injury may result if proper precautions are not taken.
Caution
with a safety alert symbol, indicates that minor personal injury can result if proper precautions are not taken.
Caution
without a safety alert symbol, indicates that property damage can result if proper precautions are not taken.
Notice
indicates that an unintended result or situation can occur if the corresponding information is not taken into
account.
If more than one degree of danger is present, the warning notice representing the highest degree of danger will
be used. A notice warning of injury to persons with a safety alert symbol may also include a warning relating to
property damage.
Qualified Personnel
The device/system may only be set up and used in conjunction with this documentation. Commissioning and
operation of a device/system may only be performed by qualified personnel. Within the context of the safety notes
in this documentation qualified persons are defined as persons who are authorized to commission, ground and

Introduction 1
This configuration manual
contains the necessary information for configuration of the temperature transmitter
SITRANS TH400 via a host system with application software for or PROFIBUS® PA.
Operation/control with SIMATIC PDM
For the connection setup to SITRANS TH400 PROFIBUS PA the control system SIMATIC
PDM requires:
•the device-specific device data file GSD and
•the Device Description Language file DDL
If you want to use SITRANS TH400 PA in other host systems you can find the GSD-file and
DDL-files:
•on the CD: „SITRANS T - transmitter for temperature“ (A5E00364512), which may be
ordered separately.
•On the Internet http://www.siemens.com/sitranst
Parameter lists abbreviations
In the Store column:
•SRC = Static Revision Counter; N = No; D = Dynamic;
•Cst = Constant. The parameter doesn’t change in a device.
In the RO / R/W column:
•RO = Read Only; R /W = Read Write; * = Mixed of RO and R/W; ** = Don’t care

2.1 Diagnosis
In order to provide some information about the device to the control application and the
human interface, there are diagnosis parameters in the device. The diagnosis parameters
have a bit string data type and there is a mask parameter indicating which diagnosis is
supported by the device.
2.2 Diagnosis of the Device Characteristics
In the Physical block the DIAGNOSIS parameter has the information about the “alerts” into
the device (for instance, device not initialized, power up, factory init, hardware failure, etc).
The DIAGNOSIS_MASK has the diagnosis supported by the device.

A block has static block parameters, that are not changed by the
process. Values are assigned to this parameter during the
configuration or optimisation. The value of ST_REV must increase
by 1 after every change of a static block parameter. This provides a
check of the parameter revision.

The Transducer Block
3.1 Transducer Block
SITRANS TH400 PROFIBUS® PA
10 Configuration Manual, 02/2007, A5E01039143-01
The Transducer Block 3
3.1 Transducer Block
contains all of the manufacturer-specific parameters that define how the SITRANS TH400
Transmitter functions. Selections such as setting of input type, engineering units, defining the
dual functionality when using the dual input, and so forth, are performed in the Transducer
Block.
The transducer block in SITRANS TH400 allows the user to select a large number of
sophisticated functions. Therefore, the configuration of the transmitter must be carried out
with the greatest possible care.
