Current output I1 4 to 20 mA
The “Current output I1 4 to 20 mA” function allows the operator to define the range in which the current output
is to be operated. Within the range from 4 to 21.6 mA (= 0 ... 110 %) HART
communication is not possible. The
range from 4 to 20.5 mA follows the NAMUR recommendation and covers the range from 0 to 104 % of the
measuring range. The standard range from 4 to 21.6 mA allows for a control of the measuring range of up to
110 %.
Press “Enter” to display the current setting.

[4] – 21.6 mA
The current assignment will be displayed and can be changed by toggling the arrow keys.
The operator can choose between the settings:
4 – 20.5 mA
4 – 21.6 mA
Pressing the “Enter” key confirms the entry.
