device. After the device and 475 Field Communicator resume
communication, the Live Device List appears.
Setting the device to be a Link Master or Basic device
If a device is capable of becoming a Link Active Scheduler (LAS), the
Link Master Configuration menu option is displayed in the Advanced
menu. The screen shows the current operating class in the drop down
box and lets you select the new operating class. Select Link Master if
you want the device to attempt to be the LAS, or select Basic if you
want to prevent the device from becoming the LAS.
Setting the device as a link master does not set the device as the LAS.
The link master device must follow the fieldbus process to become the
LAS if other link master devices are on the segment.
After you set the option, the device resets and the Field Communicator
temporarily loses communication with the device.
NOTE
You cannot change the device to be a link master or basic device
when, at a minimum, any of the following hosts/linking devices are
detected on the segment: Rosemount 3420, DeltaV, Ovation,
Allen-Bradley FFLD and FFLDC, Honeywell Experion PKS, Yokogawa
Stardom or CENTUM, Softing FG-100/HSE, or SMAR DF62. To
change the device to be a Link Master or Basic device, use the host
system or remove the device from the segment and connect it directly
to the 475 Field Communicator.
