6.4 Configuring the measurement units
For each process variable, the transmitter must be configured to use the measurement unit appropriate
to your application.
To configure measurement units, see the menu flowcharts in Figure 6-4. For details on measurement
units for each process variable, see Sections 6.4.1 through 6.4.4.
Note: Pressure unit configuration is required only if you are using pressure compensation with
polling. See Section 9.2.

measurement units.
If the mass flow unit you want to use is not listed, you can define a special measurement unit for mass
flow (see Section 8.3).
