10.3.1   Device management

Device management has four items to be set or confirmed as follows.

  A0044919

 94

Device management screen

• Device tag: Defines the name for the measuring point in order to identify the device

easily in the master device.

Allowed characters type: 32 characters with A to Z, 0 to 9, and certain special characters

(***).

• Locking status: Shows if any of those two items are locked with a check mark.

• Hardware locked: The device is locked by using the DIP switch. For details, →   48

• Temporarily locked: The device is temporarily locked by some process (e.g. reset

factory default or restart device). The device will be unlocked after completion of the

process.

• Configuration counter: Shows the counter for changes to the device parameters.

• If the value of the static parameter is changed at the time of optimizing or configuring

the parameter, the counter is incremented by 1.

This is to enable tracking different parameter versions.

• If multiple parameters are changed simultaneously (e.g. when loading parameters into

the device from an external source such as FieldCare), the counter displays a higher

value.

The counter cannot be reset, nor return to a default value when performing a device

reset.

• Reset device: Enables reset to factory defaults or restart device.
