You can choose between different output areas with an active channel.
Note
Unused channels
Disable unused channels in the configuration to improve the cycle time of the module.
A deactivated channel always returns the output value 0 mA.
An overview of the output area, overflow and overrange etc. can be found in the appendix
"Representation of analog values in the current output ranges (Page 75)".
Description
The I/O module has the following output areas:

The settling time depends on whether HART communication is activated for the output area.
You can find the settling time without HART communication (x ms) in section "Technical
specifications (Page 45)".
The settling time without HART communication is represented as follows:
Figure 5-1
If HART communication is activated for the output area, the settling time of the output value is
set to 50 ms.
The settling time with HART communication is represented as follows:
