Note
Do not use the following raw travel
input indication for calibrating the
travel sensor. The following should
only be used for a relative indication to
be sure the travel sensor is working
and that it is moving in the correct
direction. Perform the Travel Sensor
Adjust procedure in the Calibration
section to calibrate the travel sensor.
Raw Travel Input—Indicates the travel sensor
position in analog-to-digital converter counts. When
the travel sensor is operating correctly, this number
changes as the valve strokes.
View Number of Days Powered Up—Indicates
in hours or days the total elapsed time the instrument
has been powered up.
Number of Power Ups—Indicates how many
times the instrument has cycled power.
Device Information
The Device Information menu is available to view
information about the instrument. Follow the prompts
on the Field Communicator display to view information
in the following fields: HART Tag, Device ID,
Manufacturer, Model, Device Revision, Firmware
Revision, Hardware Revision, Instrument Level, and
HART Universal Revision.
Hart Tag—A HART tag is a unique name (up to
eight characters) that identifies the physical
instrument.
Device ID—Each instrument has a unique
Device Identifier. The device ID provides additional
security to prevent this instrument from accepting
commands meant for other instruments.
Table 6-2. Functions Available for Instrument Level
Instrument
Level

ValveLink software.
In addition to above, provides: travel cutoffs and limits,
minimum opening and closing times, input
characterization (linear, equal percentage, quick
opening, and custom), trending with ValveLink Solo,
and the following alerts: travel deviation; travel alert
high, low, high high, and low low; drive signal; auxiliary
terminal; cycle counter; and travel accumulation.
AD
Includes all functions listed above plus (with ValveLink
software) all offline diagnostic tests (dynamic error
band, drive signal, step response, and valve signature)
plus online trending
PD

number of the HART Universal Commands which are
used as the communications protocol for the
instrument.
DD Information
Contains the device description in the Field
Communicator.
