Options for Discrete Output Fault Action
Label Discrete Output behavior
Upscale
• Fault: Discrete Output is ON (site-specific voltage)
• No fault: Discrete Output is controlled by its assign-
ment
Downscale
• Fault: Discrete Output is OFF (0 V)
• No fault: Discrete Output is controlled by its assign-
ment
None (default) Discrete Output is controlled by its assignment
Fault indication with the Discrete Output
To indicate faults via the Discrete Output, set Discrete Output Source to Fault. Then, if a
fault occurs, the Discrete Output is always ON and the setting of Discrete Output Fault
Action is ignored.
6.5 Configure events
An event occurs when the real-time value of a user-specified process variable moves past a
user-defined setpoint. Events are used to provide notification of process changes or to
perform specific transmitter actions if a process change occurs.
Your transmitter supports two event models:
• Basic event model
• Enhanced event model

Overview
A basic event is used to provide notification of process changes. A basic event occurs (is
ON) if the real-time value of a user-specified process variable moves above (HI) or below
(LO) a user-defined setpoint. You can define up to two basic events. Event status can be
queried via digital communications, and a Discrete Output can be configured to report
event status.
Procedure
1. Select the event that you want to configure.
Integrate the meter with the control system
