Introduction

The 475 Field Communicator builds on the industry-leading technology of the 375 Field Communicator while adding innovative new capabilities including color display, Bluetooth communication, and advanced field diagnostics with applications like ValveLink™  Mobile.

See and Feel the Difference

The touch screen display uses transflective technology, making it easy to read in both bright sunlight and normal lighting. To make sure all conditions are covered, a multi-level backlight is included, allowing a bright, crisp display even in plant areas with dim light. The touch screen display and large physical navigation buttons provide for efficient use both on the bench and in the field.   The icon-based user interface allows you to navigate quickly and efficiently. The full-color graphics capability is provided as standard with every 475 Field Communicator. It uses powerful EDDL technology to allow you to read data from field devices in a graphical manner. Charts, graphs, gauges, and product images are just a few of the ways in which important device data can be displayed using the 475 Field Communicator’s color LCD display. The weight of the 475 Field Communicator is evenly distributed for comfortable one-handed operation in the field. It runs on Windows CE, a robust, real-time operating system. The 475 Field Communicator has plenty of memory to allow for future expansion. It has 32 MB of application memory and 1 GB of memory on its System Card. New HART and Foundation  Fieldbus devices, as well as functional updates to existing devices, are introduced continually by device vendors. Keeping up-to-date with the required Device Descriptions (DDs) for all the devices in your plant can be a real challenge. With  Easy Upgrade, when new HART and Foundation  Fieldbus DDs become available, you can simply download them from the  Internet and upgrade your 475 Field Communicator. Update at your site, within your control, when it’s convenient for you.
