If HART communication is installed, it is not possible to set the output for 0-20 mA (even
though the option is visible in the display). This is due to the fact that HART does not work if
the output falls below 2-3 mA.
4-20 mA + Alarm is the default setting for MAG 6000 I. For all other variants, the default setting
is 4-20 mA.
The controlling of alarm levels does not recognize if the jumper is mounted for passive output.
Do not combine differentiation and low alarm level together with passive output. The output will
try to pull down the level to 1.3 mA at fatal errors which is not possible for passive output.
