Installation
3.3 Before you install
3.3.1 Alarm and write protection switches
Electronic boards are electrostatically sensitive. Failure to observe proper handling precautions
for static-sensitive components can result in damage to the electronic components. Do not
remove the electronic boards from the Rosemount 3300 Series Radar Transmitter.
Note
To ensure long life for your radar transmitter, and to comply with hazardous location installation
requirements, tighten covers on both sides of the electronics housing.

The transmitter monitors its own operation. This automatic diagnostic routine is a timed series
of checks repeated continuously. If the diagnostic routine detects a failure in the transmitter,
the 4–20 mA output is driven upscale (high) or downscale (low) depending on the position of
the Alarm switch.
Security write protection prevents unauthorized access to configuration data through the
Rosemount Configuration Tool (RCT) software, a Field Communicator or AMS
®
Suite software.
