Upper range value (P015)
This defines the process value (PV) represented by a 20 mA output from the transmitter.
The span of the 4–20 mA current output is defined by the
Upper Range Value
parameter and
the
Lower Range Value
parameter (
page 126
).
Consider a tank with a 120 gallons capacity. When full, a 20 mA output current is required from
the transmitter. Therefore, the upper range value is set to 120 if the PV is in gallon units. The
lower range value is typically set to 0 (gallons) for the 4 mA output to indicate an empty tank.
The upper range value can be less than the lower range value, in which case the current output
will decrease for an increasing process value (PV).
Note
The upper range value is
automatically overwritten
when the
Tank Shape/NLP
parameter is
used to select a flume flow profile, but the populated value can still be edited if required.
See
Table F-1 on page 119
for the 20 mA point values.
The displayed units are selected using the parameter
Primary Variable Units
(see
page 120
). Changing units does not re-scale the upper range value.
Field Communicator
