By adjusting the maximum and minimum inputs, you can
scale the output appropriately. See Figure 6.2.

Maximum Output
Enter the output value (0 to 100%) which corresponds to
the maximum input.
The output will never go above the this maximum output
percentage, regardless of how high the process variable
goes.
Selectable values: 0 to 100%
Process Variable Retransmit Example: Data Logging
The CLS200 controls the temperature of a furnace. The
thermocouple in one of the zones is connected to the con-
troller and is used for closed-loop PID control. An analog re-
corder data logging system is also in place, and a recording
of the process temperature is required. The recorder input
is a linear 4 to 20 mA
Î
(dc) signal representing a process
variable range of 0 to 1000˚ F.
