• If a constant will be used to modify a process variable, you must use the internal
measurement units to derive the constant.
5. Enter a label to be used for the output of the user-defined calculation (the new
process variable).
6. (Optional) Set up a reporting method for the new process variable.
The new process variable can be configured as a display variable or a HART variable,
or assigned to an mA output. It can also be read using digital communications.
Important
The output of the user-defined calculation is based on internal measurement units for process
variables. You may need to convert this value to the configured units before using it in your
application or process.
