Changing the Menu Title for
HART Revision 6 or Higher
Devices

Storage Cleanup

The 475 Field Communicator displays status messages from the connected HART
device. The Ignore Status option lets you specify the number of device status
messages that are not displayed, extending the time between displayed messages.
The default is 50 messages and it is reset to this value after you close the HART
Application.
NOTE
If you choose to ignore all device status messages, every message, regardless of
severity, is ignored until the specified number of messages is reached.
To change the number of ignored status messages:
1. From the HART Application main menu, double-tap Utility.
2. Double-tap Configure HART Application.
3. Double-tap Ignore Status.
4. Enter the number of status messages you want ignored before the next message
appears. You can specify a number from 50 to 500.
5. Tap ENTER. All device status messages are ignored until the quantity specified is
reached.
The HART 6 Tag menu lets you select the HART short or long tag to display in the
menu title for HART revision 6 or higher devices. The short tag can have up to 8
characters, and the long tag can have up to 32 characters. These tags can be edited at
any time. If the long tag does not fit on the window, an ellipsis is shown at the end of
the tag. Tap and hold the ellipsis to see the full tag name.
The location of these parameters in the Online menu varies from device to device
because it is determined by the device manufacturer.
To select a HART tag for the menu title:
1. From the HART Application main menu, double-tap Utility.
2. Double-tap Configure HART Application.
3. Double-tap HART 6 Tag.
4. Tap Show Long Tag to display the HART long tag, or tap Show Short Tag to
display the HART short tag.
5. Tap ENTER. The 475 Field Communicator continues to use the option you selected
until you change the setting.

• Internal Flash - Tap YES to delete all configurations in the Internal Flash. Tap No to
