O)*100 = -48%
Position the jumper to the MID ZE position.
3. Apply -120 inH

O to the high side process connection
(as marked on the transmitter sensor module) and
adjust the zero until the transmitter output reads 4mA.
DO NOT USE THE SPAN ADJUSTMENT.
NOTE
Applying 120 inH
2
O to the low side process connection (as
marked on the transmitter module) will give the same result.
4. Apply -20 inH
2
O to the high side process connection
(as marked on the transmitter sensor module). Verify
the output reads 20mA. If necessary, adjust the span.
Recheck the zero after any span adjustment.
