2. HART COMMUNICATOR OPERATION
(17) Multidrop Mode
“Multidropping”
transmitters refers to the connection
of several transmitters to a single communications
transmission line. Up to 15 transmitters can be con-
nected when set in the multidrop mode. To activate
multidrop communication, the transmitter address must
be changed to a number from 1 to 15. This change
deactivates the 4 to 20 mA analog output, sending it to
4 mA. The alarm current also is disabled.
