4mA OFST: 0 – SPAN or lower “4mAOFST=0” means that the tank bottom is the distance/level of 4mA output. [Caution] If “4mAOFST” is any other than 0, “4mAOFST” to “SPAN” is 4- 20mA output range. I4-20: Norm(Normal) or Reve(Reverse) Set the basis of 4-20mA output. Normal: 4mA = 0%, 20mA = 100% Reverse: 20mA = 0%, 4mA = 100% *If any other than 0 is set to [4mA OFST], OFFSET works at 0% side.
