The Offline menu lets you create offline configurations,
and to view and change device configurations stored in
the 375 Field Communicator.
There are two types of configurations: device
configurations and user configurations. A device
configuration is created from a HART device that is
online. A user configuration is a HART configuration that
is created offline or that is transferred to a 375 Field
Communicator from another program. Editing a device
configuration within the 375 Field Communicator will
change it to a user configuration.
The concept of partial or standard configurations does
not apply to the 375 Field Communicator. All
configurations are full configurations.
Creating a new configuration lets you create a user
configuration for a specific device type and revision. To
create a new HART configuration while working offline:
1. From the HART application main menu, double-tap
