10.3 Configure the Discrete Output
The Discrete Output is used to report specific meter or process conditions. The Discrete Output parameters
control which condition is reported and how it is reported. Depending on your purchase option, your
transmitter may have one Discrete Output or no Discrete Outputs.
Important
Whenever you change a Discrete Output parameter, verify all other Discrete Output parameters before
returning the meter to service. In some situations, the transmitter automatically loads a set of stored values,
and these values may not be appropriate for your application.
