Settings - Honeywell ST 800 Series User Manual

Note: To select a particular option in FDC you can either select the option and then tap Select or you
can directly double-tap the option.

Settings

Use this feature to customize FDC. You 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
•
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 you choose the option Using Device TAG or Using Device LONG TAG, FDC prompts you
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 you 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 you 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: You must not enable this option unless suggested by Honeywell TAC because this may impact
the application performance.
Revision 5.0
: Use this to detect a device based on a range of poll addresses.
