D Channel combinations
D.1 Rules for channel combinations
Use these rules to determine what channel types and channel combinations are valid on the transmitter.
Table D-1: Rules for channel combinations
Rule number
Rule
1
Channel A is always mA Output 1.
2
Channel E is always RS-485.
3
Channel B can be mA Output 2, Frequency Output 2, or Discrete Output 1.
4
Channel C can be mA Output 3, Frequency Output 1, Discrete Output 2, or Discrete Input 1.
5
Channel D can be mA Input, Frequency Output 2, Discrete Output 3, Discrete Input 2, or
Frequency Input.
6
Both Channel B and Channel D can be configured as Frequency Output 2.
D.2 Valid combinations for channel configuration
