 94 Device management screen
• Device tag: Defines the name for the measuring point in order to identify the device
easily in the master device.

(***).
• 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.
