20 mA SINK Function
The 20 mA SINK function can draw a preset amount of current from an
external voltage source to the H terminal. Thus, you can use the cali-
brator in a loop test, for example, as a simulator for two-wire transmit-
ters. In that case, use this function within the 5 to 28 V range of applied
voltages. The minimum value of the range for the 20 mA SINK function
is 0.1 mA. You can test the I/O signals of a distributor by wiring the
calibrator as indicated by the dashed lines in the following figure.

Drawing SINK Current
Step 1: Before connecting to the terminals, select
with the source
range setting rotary switch.
Step 2: Connect the positive terminal of an external power source to
the H output terminal and the negative terminal to the L output
terminal.
Step 3: Turn on the external power source and press the
key.
The
indicator on the LCD changes from

calibrator sources the preset current value of the 20 mA SINK
function between the output terminals.
Step 4: To turn off the output, press the
key once again. The
appears on the LCD and the output terminals are open-cir-
cuited.
