Appendix A

Analog Fault Signalling (2-state)

Note:

2-state mode must be selected at menu 07.

This menu selection controls the current-loop fault/failure signal output. This signal has precedence over the settings on Menu 07.

When 2-state fault signalling is enabled, in the case of a fault the mA output is 3.6 mA or 22 mA1, depending on the setting. The mA output is viewed at menu 07.

a.If the LCD displays an equal sign (=) in place of the colon (:) this indicates that the loop-current is at fault/failure level. For example F: Hi becomes F= Hi.

Set the rotary switch to 8.

To change the mode to 2-state High, press the RED (+) button for more than a second: the display reads F: Hi. In the case of a fault/failure the loop-current goes to

22.0mA.

To change the mode to 2-state Low, press the BLUE (–) button for more than a second: the display reads F: Lo. In the case of a fault/failure the loop-current goes to

3.6mA.
