C Universal Temperature Converter Installation Instructions
At this setting, the start value of the measurement range is converted to 0 mA and the end value to
20 mA. Intermediate values are converted proportionately.
Values less than the start value cannot be evaluated (output 0 mA). If the value exceeds the end value,
the output current increases linearly to a maximum of 20.5 mA (102.5 % of the measuring range).
Further increases cannot be evaluated (output 20.5 mA).
Fault current
The following table shows the values of the current output during a fault, depending on the settings.
For information on the behavior of the current output if Redundancy active has been selected, refer
to
Menu Input Extras section.
