Application Examples - Siemens SITRANS L Operating Instructions Manual

Device Type Manager (DTM)
A DTM is a type of software that 'plugs into' FDT. It contains the same information as an EDD
but an EDD is independent of the operating system.
SITRANS DTM
• SITRANS DTM is an EDDL interpreter developed by Siemens to interpret the EDD for that
device.
• To use SITRANS DTM to connect to an instrument, you must first install SITRANS DTM on
your system and then install the instrument EDD written for SITRANS DTM.
• You can download SITRANS DTM from the Siemens service and support website at
Siemens Industry Online Support (https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs).
The instrument EDD
The SITRANS LR200 PROFIBUS PA EDD for SITRANS DTM can be downloaded from the product
page of our website. Go to Support > Software Downloads.
Configuring a new device via FDT
The full process to configure a field device via FDT is outlined in an application guide which
can be downloaded from the product page of our website at LR200
