Method for starting up and/or reconfiguring a programmable field measuring instrument

A has installed hardware of the field measuring instrument at least one operation in a chemical and / or physical Measured variable of a pourable and / or flowable medium, in particular a bulk material, a liquid, a gas or the like responsive, Transducer and a communicating during operation with this Microcomputer.According to the invention, the field measurement instrument first by means of Measuring transducer and / or in one of the guiding and / or Provision of pourable and / or flowable Media serving process vessel to form a process measuring point to install. afterwards the microcomputer be started and in a within the field measuring instrument provided first memory reproached, basic functionalities the field measuring instrument at least partially-providing Basic software activated in the manner that the basic software executable by the microcomputer, so that in Interaction of basic software and the field measuring instrument installed hardware, the basic functionalities of the field measuring instrument Are available. Further, at least one measuring point, the process will at least approximately identified, the field measuring at least temporarily reproached initial identification parameter set to an externally of the field measuring instrument parent electronic data processing system using the transferred microcomputer executed basic software and at least one held before in a second memory upgrade software, the over the ...
