Overview
mA Output Fault Action controls the behavior of the mA output if the transmitter encounters
an internal fault condition.
Note
For some faults only: If Last Measured Value Timeout is set to a non-zero value, the transmitter will not
implement the fault action until the timeout has elapsed.
Procedure
1. Set mA Output Fault Action to the desired value.
The default setting is Downscale.
2. If you set mA Output Fault Action to Upscale or Downscale, set mA Output Fault Level as
desired.
Options for mA Output Fault Action and mA Output Fault Level
Options for mA Output Fault Action and mA Output Fault LevelTable 6-4:
Option mA output behavior mA Output Fault Level
Upscale Goes to the configured fault level Default: 22.0 mA
Range: 21 to 24 mA
Downscale (default) Goes to the configured fault level
Default: 2.0 mA
Range: 1.0 to 3.6 mA
Internal Zero Goes to the mA output level associated
with a process variable value of 0 (zero),
as determined by Lower Range Value and
Upper Range Value settings
