points. The 4–20 mA output may be set to operate over all or just a part of the total measuring
range. There is no limit on the minimum span of the current output, although a span below 4 in.
(100 mm) is not recommended. The 4 mA level may be set above or below the 20 mA level to
suit the monitoring or control equipment.
Note
The Rosemount 3101 measures and calculates in meters. The display units are derived as a last
operation using a pre-programmed conversion factor
