Configure The Ma Output; Configure Ma Output Process Variable - Emerson Micro Motion 1700 Configuration And Use Manual

Integrate the meter with the control system
Postrequisites
For each channel that you configured, perform or verify the corresponding input or output
configuration. When the configuration of a channel is changed, the channel's behavior will
be controlled by the configuration that is stored for the selected input or output type, and
the stored configuration may not be appropriate for your process.
After verifying channel and output configuration, return the control loop to automatic
control.

Configure the mA Output

The mA Output is used to report the configured process variable. The mA Output
parameters control how the process variable is reported.
Your transmitter has one mA Output: Channel A.
Restriction
The process variable assigned to the primary mA Output is automatically assigned to the Frequency
Output. You cannot assign a different process variable.
Important
Whenever you change an mA Output parameter, verify all other mA Output parameters before
returning the meter to service. In some situations, the transmitter automatically loads a set of stored
values, and these values may not be appropriate for your application.

If you plan to configure the output to report volume flow, ensure that you have set
Volume Flow Type as desired: Liquid or Gas Standard Volume.
If you are using the HART variables, be aware that changing the configuration of mA
Output Process Variable will change the configuration of the HART Primary Variable
(PV) and the HART Tertiary Variable (TV).
