Get HART Device Information

The Get HART Device Information command is used to gather the device
specific information for the connected HART device. The data that is
retrieved can be seen in table 7.7. The information that is gathered by this
command is similar to the information gathered from the auto-acquisition
process. The key difference is that the Get HART Device Information
command pulls the data that has been stored in the module RAM and not
directly from the field device.
