Internal Zero
None (default)
CAUTION!
If you set mA Output Fault Action or Frequency Output Fault Action to None, be sure to set Digital
Communications Fault Action to None. If you do not, the output will not report actual process data,
and this may result in measurement errors or unintended consequences for your process.
Restriction
If you set Digital Communications Fault Action to NAN, you cannot set mA Output Fault Action or Frequency
Output Fault Action to None. If you try to do this, the transmitter will not accept the configuration.

Configure the discrete output

The discrete output is used to report specific flowmeter or process conditions. The discrete
output parameters control which condition is reported and how it is reported. Your
transmitter may have zero or one discrete output: Channel B can be configured as a
frequency output or a discrete output.
The discrete output parameters include:
•
•
•
Restriction
Before you can configure the discrete output, you must configure a channel to operate as a discrete
output.

The default value is Downscale (0 Hz).
If you set Frequency Output Fault Action to Upscale, set Frequency Fault Level to the desired
value.
The default value is 15000 Hz. The range is 10 to 15000 Hz.
