Retransmit
Overview
The retransmit feature can be used to transmit an analog signal represent-
ing the value of either input process variable or the target set point vari-
able. The retransmit signal is factory configured as either a milliamp
(98_C-____-M___) or a voltage (98_C-____-N___) signal. In choosing the type
of retransmit signal the operator must take into account the input imped-
ance of the device or devices to be retransmitted to and the required signal
type, either voltage or milliamps.
Typically applications might use the retransmit option to record one of the
variables with a chart recorder or to generate a set point for other controls
in a multi-zone application.
Requirements
Output 3 is used for the retransmit option. Choose either a milliamp
(98_C-____-M___) or a voltage (98_C-____-N___) signal. Select the output
range in the Output Menu.
