We got some hit and miss 375 and 475 communicators. Sometimes they are able to access the parameters we need and sometimes not. Then sometimes you can find the charger when the battery is dead, and sometimes you can't.
I understand you can use a laptop to communicate with devices and change the needed parameters if you have the "right stuff". Thing is, I don't know what the "right stuff" is nor how it works together. I believe I have PACTWARE installed on my field laptop. And I do have a Microlink HART Protocol Modem. There's probably some DMT files stashed on the laptop somewhere, too.
Any help would be appreciated.
