Definitions for Terminology

Terminology
Definitions
Button or key
A button always refers to an area on the screen that you can
tap to select functionality.
A key always refers to hardware push-buttons on the
keyboard that you can press.
DD or Device Description files
Manufacturers create HART® compliant Device Description (DD) files that reside on the YHC5150X. You may need to check for updates to the DD files from time to time.
DD files “provide a standardized method for host systems to
access and display valuable parameters located in field instruments so that the full capability of the device can be accessed via the HART protocol.”
DDs are “used to describe such parameters as device
diagnostics, multi-variable measurements and device configuration information in a digital format. As applied in the HART Protocol, this digital information is imposed on top of the industry-standard, process control 4–20mA signal.”
Note: The two italicized statements come from the HART Communication Foundation’s web site:
http://en.hartcomm.org/hcp/tech/dd/aboutprotocol_dds.html
Highlight
This manual uses the word highlight in two ways:
1. As a noun: highlight refers to an icon or a menu line that has the focus on-screen at any given time.
2. As a verb: highlight refers to:
a. Pressing the arrow keys or Advance key to change
the focus to a new button.
b. Pressing and holding a button on-screen for one
second to change the focus to a new button.

Highlight colors
Highlights appear in three colors: red, gray, and yellow.
A red rectangle appears in System menus:
A gray highlight appears in the HART Navigation pane.
A yellow border appears in:
Selection boxes when an item is selected.
The HART Function button pane.
The HART menu path bar.

Select
This manual uses the word select to refer to:
Navigating the levels of menus in the communicator.
Opening additional screens:
o To navigate the communicator’s menu levels. o To view information. o To view additional functions.
Performing some task on the communicator. Note: Highlight an on-screen button you want to choose and
select it.
You may select items by using one of several methods:
Touchscreen gestures as you do on a smartphone, such as:
Tapping on-screen buttons or icons.
Swiping left or right.
Scrolling up or down.
Navigation keys use:
The Arrows and Advance/Switch buttons to highlight a
button.
The Select button to select the highlighted button. Numeric keys:
1–9 and 0, minus and decimal.
These Navigation shortcuts select the function directly.
A combination of touchscreen gestures and keys.
Note: The Spacebar is used as a shortcut key only on system menus. Since it is directly above the Navigation keys, it offers an easy way to select the connection bar.
Standby or sleep
This manual uses the word standby mode to describe putting the communicator into an energy-saving mode, where it uses very little power. Some use the word sleep mode instead of standby.
