To use FastCalXP for calibration of pressure transmitters, the following diagrams illustrate the recommended connections for measuring current output and
digital HART signals. It is important to connect to the working terminals on the pressure transmitter to obtain accurate milliamp readings. Do not use the TEST
terminals provided on some transmitters. These terminals may give incorrect current readings and should not be used for calibration. The polarity of the HART
modem is not important.
