Abstract

A method for parametering a field device of automation technology by means of a service device. The field device includes at least a battery, a radio module and a non-volatile memory. The battery supplies the radio module and the non-volatile memory, in which parameters of the field device are stored, with energy. The method comprises the steps of: establishing a wireless connection between the servicing device and the battery operated radio module of the field device, wherein the field device is operated offline; reading and/or writing parameters of the field device stored in the non-volatile memory; terminating the wireless connection between the servicing device and the battery operated radio module of the field device; connecting the field device to a two-wire line for energy supply of the field device; and parametering the field device after connecting to the two-wire line, wherein, for parametering, at least parameters stored in the non-volatile memory are accessed.
