(1) NAMUR Software Revision is located in the hardware tag of the device. HART Software Revision
can be read using a HART capable configuration tool.
(2) Device Driver file names use Device and DD Revision, e.g. 10_07. HART Protocol is designed to
enable legacy driver revisions to continue to communicate with new HART devices. To access this
functionality, the new device driver must be downloaded. It is recommended to download the
new device driver to ensure new functionality.
