An alternative method for measuring the output of the Current Loop converter is to connect a 250 ohm

1%

resistor across the current loop output in lieu of the current meter (see Figure 3-7 for pin assignments and
diagram of the analog output connector). This allows the use of a voltmeter connected across the resistor to
measure converter output as VDC or mVDC.

Alternative Setup Using 250Ω Resistor for Checking Current Output Signal Levels

In this case, follow the procedure above but adjust the output for the following values:
