2. Ensure Loop Current Mode (mA Output Action) is configured appropriately.
Options Description
Enabled
The primary mA output reports process data as configured.
Disabled
The primary mA output is fixed at 4 mA and does not report process
data.
Important
If you use ProLink II or ProLink III to set HART Address to 0, the program automatically enables
Loop Current Mode. If you use ProLink II or ProLink III to set HART Address to any other value, the
program automatically disables Loop Current Mode. This is designed to make it easier to
configure the transmitter for legacy behavior. Always verify Loop Current Mode after setting
HART Address.
3. (Optional) Enable and configure Burst Parameters.
Tip
In typical installations, burst mode is disabled. Enable burst mode only if another device on
the network requires burst mode communication.
4. (Optional) Configure HART Variables.

Overview
Burst mode is a mode of communication during which the transmitter regularly
broadcasts HART digital information over the mA output. The burst parameters control
the information that is broadcast when burst mode is enabled.
Tip
In typical installations, burst mode is disabled. Enable burst mode only if another device on the
network requires burst mode communication.
Procedure
1.
Enable Burst Mode.
2. Set Burst Mode Output as desired.
