As you browse through the “tree”, different values will appear in the bottom section of the main screen.
Since the DD (Device Description) file can be different for each field device, SDC 625 Main screen will
look different for many devices. Some field devices will require relatively few configurations commands
and therefore the main screen will have a simple structure. Other devices, which require more configuration
commands, will have a relatively complex main screen structure. The following table depicts the basic
structure of a Device Setup menu for a Honeywell STT 250 temperature transmitter:
