ABSTRACT:
A field device management system communicates with a smart device using a device description written in a communication protocol associated with the smart device and accesses data pertaining to a conventional or non-smart field device using a device description written in conformance with the smart device communication protocol. The field device management system uses the device description for the conventional device to initially request certain data pertaining to the conventional device from a user and then stores this data in a memory for future access.
