Configure Ma Output Fault Action - Emerson Micro Motion 5700 Configuration And Use Manual

Interaction between mA Output Damping and process
variable damping
When mA Output Source is set to a flow rate variable, density, or temperature, mA Output
Damping interacts with Flow Damping, Density Damping, or Temperature Damping. If
multiple damping parameters are applicable, the effect of damping the process variable is
calculated first, and the mA output damping calculation is applied to the result of that
calculation.
Example: Damping interaction
Configuration:
•
•
•
Result: A change in the mass flow rate will be reflected in the mA output over a time period
that is greater than 3 seconds. The exact time period is calculated by the transmitter
according to internal algorithms which are not configurable.

Overview
mA Output Fault Action controls the behavior of the mA output if the transmitter detects a
fault condition.

The fault action is implemented only if Alert Severity is set to Failure. If Alert Severity is set to
any other option, the fault action is not implemented.
For some faults only: If Fault Timeout is set to a non-zero value, the transmitter will not
implement the fault action until the timeout has elapsed.
Set mA Output Fault Action as desired.
