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

• Range: Unlimited
Note
You can set URV below LRV. For example, you can set URV to 50 and LRV to 100 . If you do this, the mA
Output will be inversely proportional to the value of mA Output Source.
Tip
For best performance:
• Set LRV ≥ LSL (lower sensor limit).
• Set URV ≤ USL (upper sensor limit).
• Set these values so that the difference between URV and LRV is ≥ Min Span (minimum span).
This ensures that the resolution of the mA output signal is within the range of the bit precision of the D/A
converter.
Note
The transmitter always stores LRV and URV for the current process variable and the previous process variable.
If mA Output Source is set to Mass Flow Rate and you set LRV and URV for this configuration, then you
change mA Output Source to Volume Flow Rate and set LRV and URV, then change mA Output Source back
to Mass Flow Rate, the corresponding LRV and URV are restored automatically. However, if you changed mA
Output Source to Volume Flow Rate, then to Phase Genius Flow Severity, and then back to Mass Flow Rate,
the configured LRV and URV for Mass Flow Rate are no longer available. The sensor's lower limit and upper
limit are used instead.

Direction
mA Output Direction controls how conditions of forward flow and reverse flow affect the flow rates reported
by the mA Output.
Actual flow direction interacts with Sensor Flow Direction Arrow to determine the flow direction that the
transmitter uses in processing. See the following table.
