9.2.2 Details
NOTICE!
• Diagnostic information is available only after the applicable statistics period has been
completed (15 minutes). During this time, some information is set to 0 or replaced by
wildcard characters.
Details shows all devices in the WirelessHART network together with their diagnostic
information.
Whenever a wireless device joins the network, it is automatically inserted into the list if it is
not already there. Wired HART devices connected to a WirelessHART Adapter (SWA70) are
also listed. To remove a device from the list, use the Instrument List. See Chapter 10.1
"Instrument List" on page 64.

Instrument Identification Displays information identifying the device:
• Long Tag: Long Tag of connected device
• IO card: Identifier of fieldgate card used by the device
• Channel: Identifier of card channel used by the device
• Device Type: Designation of connected device
• Status: Communication status of the associated device
– Connected
– Flashing: Device connected, being identified
– Continuous: Device connected but not identified
– Communication failure
• Dev. Status: Device status of the associated device
– Good
– Out of specification
– Failure
Note that the device status that is displayed in the list may differ from the actual
device status because the HART status bits may be interpreted differently.
Number of Joins Number of times the device has joined the network
Join Time Date of the last time the device joined the network
Reliability Percentage of the packets generated by the wireless devices that were correctly
received by the gateway.
Latency Average time taken for packets generated by the wireless devices to reach the
gateway.
+/- Show/hide the list of neighboring devices
Neighbors Neighboring WirelessHART devices in reach of the selected device
RSSI Indicates the power of the signal received from the selected device by the named
neighboring device
Stability Ratio of successful packet transmissions to the total number of packet
transmissions on all wireless paths in the network
