The mA output is used to report a process variable. The mA output parameters control how the process
variable is reported. Your transmitter has two mA outputs.
The mA output parameters include:
•
mA Output Process Variable
•
Lower Range Value
(LRV) and
Upper Range Value
(URV)
•
AO Cutoff
•
Added Damping
•
AO Fault Action
and
AO Fault Value
