The SIS HART Device faceplate, SIS_HARTDEV_fp contains active and suppressed alarm lists. The following shows an example of the SIS HART Device faceplate in run mode. 

You can open the SIS HART Device faceplate in DeltaV Operate run mode by clicking a HART Device alarm button in the Alarm Banner or by clicking the Device Faceplate button on the Toolbar and typing the HART Device tag.

The following items are contained in the SIS HART Device faceplate:
