7.7.1 Configuration management - Edit

When navigating DD stored files, DHH805-A shows the screen
here above (see figure 21 and 22). Once the Edit option has
been selected, user gets access to offline configuration
management. A progress bar indicates the percentage of
configuration structure upload completion. As stated above,
configurations are named, stored and sorted by instrument tag.
DHH805-A can store up to 1000 device profiles (DD files) and
up to 200 configurations. Lists can be scrolled by using the up/
down navigation keys.
Figure 24: Configuration list
This screen lists all stored HART configurations by instrument
tag number. The configurations stored enable fast
commissioning of replacement devices, cloning of existing
systems, or re-configuring for changes in process conditions or
batch runs. Any configuration in the list can be sent to another
HART device of the same manufacturer and model. The display
can show 20 character tag numbers. Truncated tags are listed
if more than 20 characters are used. Moving the cursor down
to the tag of interest and pressing the Select soft key will
provide a detailed information screen (see figure 24)
Figure 25: Editable configuration parameters in offline mode
This list features the Info icon. By pushing the Delete / Help
button, user can read some detailed information about all editable
parameters of the selected configuration (see figure 25).
Parameter editing is extremely simple. By selecting the Edit
push button, user can modify and customize all configuration
entries.

7.7.2 Configuration management - Create

Configurations can be created from the beginning by entering
the second item on the list shown in figure 22. When user
selects Create, DHH805-A shows the screen here below:
Figure 27: Configuration name
New configuration name will be instrument tag number, therefore
it can feature a maximum length of 8 characters, otherwise an
appropriate warning message will be displayed. The arrow icon in
the bottom centre of the display indicates that the string is case
sensitive. To enable/disable caps lock push the up navigation key.
When the list of configurable parameters (see figure 24) appears,
user can enter consistent values for all the parameters.

7.7.3 Configuration management - Delete

To delete configurations, select Delete under the Offline
Configuration menu (figure 22). DHH805-A will show the
configuration list (figure 23). Before deleting configurations, the
handheld terminal will ask for confirmation and then gives a
feedback about deletion outcome (as shown here below).
