Select the Required Configuration Mode for the UMC100.3
The UMC100.3 can be configured in different ways depending on your system setup:

Configuration via LCD panel

The device address has to be configured via LCD panel. It is possible to adjust all other protection and control parameters of the
UMC100.3 using the panel. The configuration via LCD panel is good for stand-alone applications (without bus) and when no Laptop
for parameterisation is in use.
The configuration via LCD panel can be password-protected to prevent unintentional parameter changes.

Configuration from within the control system

Device description files allow the integration and configuration of a device in the fieldbus master. For PROFIBUS this file is called a
GSD file. In case of DeviceNet so-called EDS files are commonly used.
The UMC100.3 can be configured using these configuration files. A considerable benefit of this method of configuration is that the
configuration is stored centrally in the control system and can be downloaded again in the event of a replacement.
If the UMC100.3 is connected via PROFIBUS and the control system supports the FDT/DTM technology, it is also possible to confi-
gure the UMC100.3 using the PBDTM (PROFIBUS Device Type Manager) from within the system.
The PBDTM offers a very user-friendly configuration interface which also allows to adapt the internal UMC100.3 application logic
using the custom application editor.
In online mode the PBDTM additionally provides access to all diagnosis, service and process data.

Configuration via Laptop

The configuration via laptop option is a convenient way to parameterise and monitor the UMC100.3.
The FDT/DTM based configuration tool provides full access to all data available in the UMC100.3.
The following functions are available:
• Online and offline configuration and parameterisation of the UMC100.3
• Monitoring and diagnosis of the UMC100.3 during operation
• Function block based programming of a user specific application
• Use of user roles and optional password protection for different tasks (e.g. engineering or operation)
Connect the service laptop with a standard USB cable to the UMC100-PAN for configuration of a single UMC100.
If several UMC100s are connected via PROFIBUS, the UTP22 communication adapter can be used.
This adapter connects your laptop to the PROFIBUS line and allows central configuration and monitoring of all UMC100.3s
connected to this line. This is recommended for larger PROFIBUS installations.
For configuration via laptop use the ABB tool "Asset Vision Basic".
It is jointly used by ABB Instrumentation and ABB Control Products. It is based on the FDT/DTM standard.
The installation and use of the PBDTM is described in the PBDTM manual. It also provides general information about
the FDT/DTM technology.
Please read this manual carefully if you are unfamiliar with the FDM/DTM technology.
