Emerson Micro Motion 1600 - 16.20 Check Lower Range Value and Upper Range Value; 16.21 Check mA Output Fault Action; 16.22 Trim mA Output; 16.22.1 Trim an mA Output using the display

• You must end the test. It will not time out by itself. A power cycle will also end the test.
16.20 Check Lower Range Value and Upper Range Value
If the process variable assigned to the mA Output falls below the configured Lower Range Value (LRV) or rises
above the configured Upper Range Value (URV), the meter will post an Output Saturated alert for the affected
output, then perform the configured fault action.
Procedure
1. Record your current process conditions.
2. Check the configuration of the LRV and URV.
16.21 Check mA Output Fault Action
The mA Output Fault Action controls the behavior of the mA Output if the transmitter encounters an internal
fault condition. If the mA Output is reporting a constant value below 4 mA or above 20 mA, the transmitter
may be in a fault condition.
Procedure
1. Check the status alerts for active fault conditions.
2. If there are active fault conditions, the transmitter is performing correctly. If you want to change its
behavior, change the setting of mA Output Fault Action.
3. If there are no active fault conditions, continue troubleshooting.
16.22 Trim mA Output
Trimming an mA Output calibrates the transmitter mA Output to the receiving device. If the current trim value
is inaccurate, the transmitter will under-compensate or over-compensate the output.
16.22.1 Trim an mA Output using the display
Trimming the mA Output establishes a common measurement range between the transmitter and the device
that receives the mA Output.
Prerequisites
Ensure that the mA Output is wired to the receiving device that will be used in production.
Procedure
1. Choose Menu → Service Tools → mA Output Trim → mA Output 1.
2. Follow the instructions in the guided method.
3. Check the trim results. If any trim result is less than −20 microamps or greater than +20 microamps,
contact customer service.
16.22.2 Trim mA Output using ProLinkIII
Trimming the mA Output establishes a common measurement range between the transmitter and the device
that receives the mA Output.
Prerequisites
Ensure that the mA Output is wired to the receiving device that will be used in production.
