4.3-1 HART™ Resistor Selection

The DMC1400 can be set-up so that the 250 ohm resistor required
for HART™ configuration devices resides inside the DMC1400.
Enabling the DMC1400's internal 250 ohm resistor eliminates the
need to manually add a series resistor during a HART™ calibration
process.

NOTE: When the DMC1400's internal 250 resistor is enabled,
maximum load driving capability drops from 1000 ohms @ 20mA to
750 ohms @20mA.

Enable/Disable Procedure

1. Remove the battery cover and remove the 2 screws that are

at the top of the case.

2. Remove the 2 screws on the bottom or lower portion of the

case.

3. Gently remove the top half of the case from the bottom.

4. Figure 10a. shows the location of the HART™ jumpers.
