Important
Whenever you change a discrete output parameter, verify all other discrete output parameters
before returning the meter to service. In some situations, the transmitter automatically loads a set of
stored values, and these values may not be appropriate for your application.

Overview
Discrete Output Source controls which device condition or process condition is reported
via the discrete output.
Procedure
Set Discrete Output Source to the desired option.
The default setting for Discrete Output Source is Fault.
