3.5.5 Built-In Resistance Input

The resistance input can be used to monitor a resistance which changes in proportion to a
process related value such as a set-point. Make resistance input connections as shown in
Figure 3-7.

The resistance input can also be used for a 2-wire RTD, which is not on the list of supported
RTDs in Section 4.3.6. Make the 2-wire RTD connections as shown in Figure 3-4. When
using an RTD not supported by the instrument software, the database must be configured to
provide a user defined linearization using the PC configuration software. Refer to Section
1.1.2 Related Documents.
