This arrangement may also be made with a T8833 FTA. It expects the field transmitter to be self-powered, to provide both sides of the current loop to the FTA, and to have at least 2 mA of power at low range for the input circuit. Rockwell Automation Publication PD-T8834 Issue 3...

In this example, the device is ranged down to 0 mA and cannot power the input circuit. It also requires a power supply from the FTA. In this case, the device draws the current loop to ground, and so the current loop is connected below the 100 Ω resistor. Issue 3 Rockwell Automation Publication PD-T8834...
