20 mA VALUES
The analyzer provides two isolated analog outputs (1 and
2), each representing the measured turbidity. During cali-
bration, both analog outputs can be held at their present
values, transferred to a preset value, or remain active. Dur-
ing normal measurement operation, both outputs can be:
•
Held for up to 30 minutes by using the “CHECK CAL/
HOLD” function in the TEST/MAINT menu.
•
Held indefinitely by locally or remotely connecting both
TTL input terminals on TB1.
If a TEST/MAINT hold is applied in addition to a TTL hold,
both “holds” must be removed before the outputs return to
active status. If the outputs are set to “XFER” or “ACTIVE”
during a calibration, they remain in that state until after cali-
bration regardless of the TTL input status.
NOTE:
When using the HART communication option, a
digital signal is encoded onto the 4-20 mA analog
Output 1 signal. In a HART SINGLE MODE wiring
configuration, Output 1 remains available for normal
use. However, in a HART MULTI-DROP wiring con-
figuration, Output 1 becomes dedicated to that
function and cannot be used. See Part Three, Sec-
tion 8 for more HART communication information.
These instructions configure Output 1. Configure Out-
put 2 in the same way using its respective menu
screens.
You can set the turbidity values to define the endpoints at
which the minimum and maximum output values are desired.
