Loop test can fix the transmitter output at a specified analog value, and can
be used to test the integrity of the loop and the operation of indicators,
recorders, or similar devices in the loop.
Calibration can include such operations as configuring output related
parameters, performing a sensor trim, or performing an analog output trim.
Basic Setup
Press to access the Basic Setup menu.
This menu provides quick access to a number of configurable parameters
including tag, unit, range values, and damping. Figure 2-4 illustrates a
typical Basic setup menu.

The tag number identifies a specific device. Changing units affects the
engineering units that are displayed. Reranging changes the analog output
scaling. Changing damping affects the response time of the transmitter to
smooth the output when there are rapid input variations.
The options available in the Basic Setup menu are the most fundamental
tasks that can be simply performed with a given device. These tasks are a
subset of the options available under the Detailed Setup menu.
Detailed Setup
Press to access the Detailed setup menu.
This menu provides access to every editable device parameter and all
device functions. The Detailed Setup menu varies widely from one HART
compatible device to another. Functions in this menu can include tasks such
as characterization, configuration, and sensor and output trims.
