The 375 Field Communicator has a simulation
mode that allows you to simulate an online
connection to a HART-compatible device without
actually connecting to a device. Simulation mode is
a training tool that helps you become familiar with
devices before configuring them in a critical
environment. A simulated configuration cannot be
saved.
To simulate a connection to a HART device:
1. From the HART main menu, double-tap Utility.
2. Double-tap Simulation. The manufacturers with
device descriptions installed on the 375 Field
Communicator are listed.
