The following procedure provides the steps for calibrating the output signal for a Transmitter in the
analog mode. The procedure is similar for a Transmitter in the DE mode, but the MC Toolkit is
required to read the output in percent in place of current or voltage. Figure 10

illustrates the test setup for the analog output calibration process.

1.
Verify the integrity of the electrical components in the output current loop.
2.
Connect the MC Toolkit as indicated, and establish communication with the Transmitter. For
these procedures, values of components in the current loop are not critical, if they support
reliable communication between the Transmitter and the MC Toolkit.
3.
Start the MC Tookit application, and establish communication with the Transmitter.
4.
In the Output Calibration box, select the
Loop Test
button to display the LOOP TEST box.
5.
Select the desired constant-level Output:
0
%
,
100 %
, or
Other
(any of
0 % - 100 %)
.
6.
Select the
Set
button. You will be prompted to confirm that you want to put the Transmitter
in output mode.
