Displaying the
Online Menu
The Online menu is the first menu to appear when
connected to a HART device. To view process
information for a connected device, select an item from
the Online menu. A typical online menu is shown in
Figure 3-5.
This menu displays critical, up-to-date process
information that is continuously updated, including
device setup, primary variable (PV), analog output (AO),
PV lower range value (LRV), and PV upper range value
(URV). The configuration parameters for devices vary
from device to device and are defined in the device
description. See your field device user’s manual for
more information.
Figure 3-5. Online Menu Example
Because the Online menu displays important
information, some menus provide instant access to this
window. When access is available, the HOME button is
displayed to return you to the HART Online menu.
Once you have made changes to the parameters, you
can send them to the device from this window. An
asterisk appears next to the parameter name of any
un-sent item.
