d) Choose Menu > Service Tools > Service Data > View I/O Levels and read the state of the discrete
input.
e) Return the remote input device to normal operation.
5. Test the mA Input.
a) Set the remote input device to generate a known fixed current.
b) Choose Menu > Service Tools > Service Data > View I/O Levels and read the value of the mA
input.
c) Return the remote input device to normal operation.
6. Test the Frequency Input.
a) Set the remote input device to generate a known fixed current.
b) Choose Menu > Service Tools > Service Data > View I/O Levels and read the value of the
frequency input.
c) Return the remote input device to normal operation.
Postrequisites
If the mA Output readings are within 20 microamps of the expected values, you can correct this
discrepancy by trimming the output.
If the discrepancy between the mA Output readings is greater than 20 microamps, or if at any step the
reading was faulty, verify the wiring between the transmitter and the remote device, and try again.
If the mA Input reading was slightly off at the transmitter, calibrate the mA signal at the remote input
device.
If the Frequency Input reading was slightly off at the transmitter, calibrate the frequency signal at the
remote input device.
If the Discrete Input readings are reversed, check the setting of Discrete Input Polarity.

17.27.2 Perform loop tests using ProLink III

Procedure
1. Test the mA output(s).
a) Choose Device Tools > Diagnostics > Testing and select the mA output to test.
b) Enter 4 in Fix to:.
c) Click Fix mA.
d) Read the mA current at the receiving device and compare it to the transmitter output.
The readings do not need to match exactly. If the values are slightly different, you can correct
the discrepancy by trimming the output.
e) Click UnFix mA.
f) Enter 20 in Fix to:.
