The on/off key is used to turn the Field Communicator on and off. From the Main Menu, select HART Application to run the HART application. On startup, the HART Application automatically polls for devices. If a HART-compatible device is found, the Field Communicator displays the Online menu. For more information on Online and Offline operation, see Menu Structure in this section. The on/off key is disabled while any applications are open, making it necessary for you to exit the 375 Main Menu before using the on/off key. This feature helps to avoid situations where the Field Communicator could be unintentionally turned off while a device s output is fixed or when configuration data has not been sent to a device.
