Features and Options
The RMA801 Remote Indicator provides a means of remote-mounting a indicator (display)
that is associated with a Honeywell Smartline Transmitter or any transmitter operating in a
4-20 mA current loop.
The RMA801 is a DE/Analog Remote Indicator which can be connected anywhere along
the current loop.
For analog PV, the RMA801 measures the loop current and displays the equivalent PV
value on the display.
The RMA801 will autoconfigure when connected to Honeywell STT700/STT250 DE
transmitters when a database upload is performed.
This document provides the information for a quick setup. For detailed information, please refer
RMA801 user manual, 34-ST-25-62.

CAUTION
Temperature extremes can affect display quality. The display can go blank if the
temperature is below -20°C or above 70°C; however, this is only a temporary condition. The
display will again be readable when temperatures return to within operable limits.
The device shall be operated by a trained professional. It is the us
er/installer’s responsibility
to install the indicator in accordance with national and local code requirements. Conduit
entry plugs and adapters shall be suitable for the environment, shall be certified for the
hazardous location when required and acceptable to the authority having jurisdiction for the
plant
The RMA device is always connected in series with the transmitter. The current loop will
be broken if the RMA801 device is removed from the loop.

nstallation and setup
Site evaluation
Evaluate the site selected for the Remote Indicator installation with respect to the
process system design specifications and Honeywell’s published performance
characteristics for your particular model. Some parameters that you may want to
include in your site evaluation can be found in the RMA801 user manual, 34-ST-25-
62
Installation precautions
Temperature extremes can affect display quality. The display can go blank if the
temperature is below -20°C or above +70°C; however, this is only a temporary
condition. The display will again be readable when temperatures return to within
operable limits.
Explosion-Proof Conduit Seal
WARNING
When installed as explosion proof in a Division 1 Hazardous Location, keep
covers tight while the Remote Indicator is energized. Disconnect power to the
Remote Indicator in the non-hazardous area prior to removing end caps for
service.
When installed as non-incendive equipment in a Division 2 hazardous location,
disconnect power to the Remote Indicator in the non-hazardous area, or
determine that the location is non-hazardous before disconnecting or
connecting the Remote Indicator wires.
