HART Device Information view parameters

Displays the HART Field Device location and purpose in the plant.

Displays additional information about the HART Field Device, such as who last calibrated the device, or reference to documentation.

Displays additional identification information that is used by the plant or asset management software.

Displays the date, which is shown in the format selected for your computer from the

Control Panel

using the

Regional

and

Language

settings.

Indicates whether the HART Field Device is write protected. Valid values are

Yes

or

No

. If a device is write protected, some parameters cannot be changed using HART communication.

Displays the manufacturer name (for example, Allen-Bradley or Endress + Hauser) or the numeric value for the manufacturer.

Use Company Identification Code table as a guide.

Displays the device type for Endress + Hauser devices, or a numeric value for all other manufacturer devices. This indicates the manufacturer’s type of the device, or product name. For example, Cerabar S pressure transmitters from Endress + Hauser have Device Type 7.

Displays a number that represents the device ID. Device ID is a serial number assigned by the manufacturer that is unique among all devices produced by that manufacturer.

Displays number that identifies the materials and electronics that comprise the field device. The number is normally changed when electronics or other components are upgraded in the field. In some instances, this number references a drawing number.

Displays the Field Device status of the selected channel.

Status

attributes are:

Displays the diagnostic code information for each channel (up to three error values).

If the device is functioning properly,

OK

is displayed. If the device is not working properly, numeric error values are displayed.

To see the additional status information in the format sent by the HART field device, send CIP Service 16#4C using a MSG instruction as described in the device's User Manual.

Displays the settings for these Primary Variable (PV) attributes.

In HART, the PV is signaled on the 4 to 20 mA analog channel. It can also be read back using HART messages. In many HART devices, the relationship between the PV and the analog signal can be adjusted.

Displays the settings for these revision attributes.

Displays the units of the Secondary Variable (SV).

Displays the units of the Tertiary Variable (TV).

Displays the units of the Fourth (Quaternary) Variable (QV).

Updates the information displayed in the

HART Device Information

view.

Select to configure the tag, message, and descriptor for the HART Field Device.

Tip

: A message displays on the screen if the device's tag, message, or descriptor does not match the values stored in the project.
