AUTOMATION ENGINEERING FIELD DEVICE WITH MULTIPLE PARAMETER SETS

Disclosed is an automation engineering field device, comprising: a sensor unit for capturing a physical measured variable for a medium; a memory unit, wherein the memory unit stores at least one standard parameter set and further parameter sets; an electronic unit, wherein the electronic unit is configured so as, after the field device starts, to load the standard parameter set and to operate the field device on the basis of the standard parameter set and wherein the electronic unit is configured so as, when a signal is received, to take the configuration of the signal as a basis for loading one of the further parameter sets and to operate the field device, or components of the field device, on the basis of the further parameter set.
