Endress+Hauser prolevel FMC 661 - Analogue Outputs

4.3 Analogue Outputs
This section describes the setting of the analogue outputs. The following parameters can
be entered or changed:
• Analogue signal range
• Output damping
• Value for 0/4 mA and 20 mA
• Output at fault
Analogue signal range Two settings are possible:
• 0 = 0...20 mA (default)
• 1 = 4...20 mA
Depending on the level values entered at
V0H5 and V0H6 for the start and end of the
range, it is possible that signals below
4 mA and above 20 mA can be generated
in normal operation.

Output damping This parameter sets the degree of damping
of the analogue output: on a sudden
change in level, 63% of the new value is
attained in the set time (0...100 s).

The digital values at V0H0, V0H8 and V0H9
are also influenced by the output damping.
