9.5 Field Communicator 375/475 (FC 375/475)
The Field Communicator is a hand terminal from Emerson Process Management that is
designed to configure HART
® and Foundation Fieldbus devices. Device Descriptions (DDs) are
used to integrate different devices into the Field Communicator.
9.5.1 Installation
System and software requirements for the Field Communicator
• System card that includes the "Easy Upgrade Option"
• Field Communicator Easy Upgrade Programming Utility
• HART ® Device Description file
For more data, refer to the Field Communicator User’s Manual.
9.5.2 Operation
The Field Communicator and the device's local display use almost the same procedures to
operate the signal converter. The online help for each menu item refers to the function number
given to each menu item on the local device display. Protection of settings is the same as on the
device's local display.
The Field Communicator always saves a complete configuration for communication with AMS.
