475 FIELD COMMUNICATOR OVERVIEW
Device interoperability
WARNING
You can install or remove the Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) battery (Power Module) 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.
The 475 Field Communicator supports HART and FOUNDATION fieldbus devices, letting you configure, maintain, or troubleshoot devices. 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. Be sure to understand and comply with the sections in this manual.
The 475 Field Communicator includes a color LCD touch screen, a Li-Ion battery (Power Module), a SH3 processor, memory components, System Card, and integral communication and measurement circuitry.
The Field Communicator also supports multiple languages. See the readme file included with the Field Communicator Easy Upgrade Utility or www.fieldcommunicator.com for more information.
The 475 Field Communicator is designed to operate with a wide range of HART and FOUNDATION fieldbus devices independent of device manufacturer. Device interoperability is achieved through the Electronic Device Description Language (EDDL) technology supported by the HART Communication Foundation and Fieldbus Foundation.
Basic testing is performed on all device descriptions. Each device manufacturer is asked to certify that they thoroughly tested their devices with the 475 Field Communicator. If certification is not received, a warning message displays when you attempt to communicate with an untested device. New device descriptions are available from the Field Communicator Easy Upgrade Utility or the Resource CD or DVD.
Working in a hazardous area
Battery and
power supply/charger
A 475 Field Communicator that meets the Intrinsic Safety requirements (I/S-approved) can be used in Zone 0 (FM), 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 475 that lists the approvals.
See Appendix B “Product certifications” for more information about IS approvals and installations.
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 is not IS-approved.
The 475 Field Communicator is powered by a Li-Ion battery that has a green, 6-pin connector. The power supply/charger also has a green connector to match the appropriate connector on the battery. See Figure 2-1 for the location of the connector.
Prior to using the 475 Field Communicator without the power supply/charger connected, fully charge the battery.
Guidelines and precautions
Understand and follow the guidelines and precautions below before using the battery or power supply/charger.
•When transporting a Li-Ion battery, follow all applicable regulations.
•Protect the battery and power supply/charger from moisture, and respect operating and storage temperature limits. See Appendix A “Reference data” for more information.
•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 Field Communicator 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 will 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.
Checking the remaining charge
To view the remaining charge, press the Charge Indicator button on the lower left side of the battery. See Figure 2-1 for the location of this button. When you press and release the button, the lights above the button slowly illuminate to display the charge remaining. Each light represents 20 percent of the charge. The battery is fully charged when all of the lights are illuminated.
You can also check the remaining charge from the Settings menu on the Field Communicator Main Menu. See “Power” on page 25 for more information.

Charging the battery
Prior to first portable use, fully charge the battery. The battery can be charged separately or while attached to the 475 Field Communicator. The 475 Field Communicator is fully operable while the battery is recharging, and a full charge takes 2-3 hours. An overcharge condition will not occur if the power supply/charger remains connected.
CAUTION
You can remove and install the Li-Ion battery in a hazardous area environment. You cannot charge the battery in this environment because the power supply/charger is not IS-approved.
To charge the battery:
1.Plug the power supply/charger into a power outlet.
2.Plug the green power supply/charger connector into the green connector on the battery. The flat side of the power supply/charger connector should face the front of the 475 or the inside of the battery, if the battery is not attached to the 475. The battery is fully charged when the light on the power supply/charger is green.
