The default value is 0.0 seconds. The range is 0.0 to 440 seconds.
When you specify a value for Added Damping, the transmitter automatically rounds the
value down to the nearest valid value.
Interaction between mA Output Damping and process
variable damping
When mA Output Process Variable is set to one of the core process variables (specific
gravity, molecular weight, or relative density), or to temperature, Added Damping
interacts with Density Damping or Temperature Damping.
Example: Damping interaction
Configuration:
• mA Output Process Variable = Specific Gravity (Gas)
• Density Damping = 1 second
• Added Damping = 2 seconds
Result: A change in specific gravity will be reflected in the mA output over a time period
that is greater than 3 seconds. The exact time period is calculated by the transmitter
according to internal algorithms which are not configurable.

Overview
mA Output Fault Action controls the behavior of the mA output if the transmitter
encounters an internal fault condition.
Note
For some faults only: If Fault Timeout is set to a non-zero value, the transmitter will not implement
the fault action until the timeout has elapsed.
Procedure
1. Set mA Output Fault Action to the desired value.
Integrate the meter with the control system
Configuration and Use Manual 101
