right arrow to select and continue.

The screens allow you to define the “Cal Zero” and “Cal Span” values for any channels that
are configured for 0-1 V, 0-5 V, 0-10 V or 4-20 mA inputs.

Example

A pressure transmitter is connected to channel # 1. The transmitter has a 4-20 mA
output representing a pressure input of 0 - 500 PSI. The “Cal Zero” and “Cal Span”
