Settings

Use this feature to customize FDC. The user can customize FDC for device detection, DD
selection, and other application settings.
Device Identification
Use the following options to configure FDC to identify a device.

Using Poll Address

Use poll address 0 only: Use this to detect a device with the poll address as
zero.

Find first poll address and use: Use this to detect a device with the first
available poll address in the range of poll addresses that are available.

Use selected poll address: Use this to detect a device with a specific poll
address in the range of zero to 63.

Use From: Use this to detect a device based on a range of poll addresses.

Using Device TAG: Use this to detect a device with a known HART tag.

Using Device LONG TAG: Use this to detect a device with a known HART long tag
(applicable for devices with HART 6 or later Universal revisions).
Note: If the user chooses the Using Device TAG or Using Device LONG TAG, the FDC prompts
the user to enter a device tag/long tag name during device detection.
DD selection

Use the following options to configure FDC to select DD files when a DD with
matching device revision is not available.

Use DD file of previous device revision: Use this option to automatically
communicate using a DD file having device revision lower than that of the
device.

Use generic DD file: Use this option to automatically communicate to the
device using an appropriate generic DD file.

Always ask user: Use this option to always prompt the user with a choice for
communicating to the device either using the previous device revision or using
a generic DD file.

Always Use Generic: Use this option to always communicate to the device
using generic DD files even if a DD file with matching device revision as the
device is present.
Note: A generic DD file is a DD file that provides access and interface to the universal data
and features of a HART device.
Other settings
Low storage notification: Use this option to set a percentage value and to notify the user with a
warning message when the available storage card space is less than the percentage set.
Application diagnostics: Use this option to enable or disable the logging infrastructure for
application diagnostics. With this option enabled, FDC creates necessary log files for
troubleshooting and diagnostics. These files are stored in SD Card\FDC folder.
Note: The user must not enable this option unless suggested by Honeywell TAC because this may
impact the application performance.
