Analog Output Response to idR Check
During the idR sequence the analog outputs respond as listed below. Readings are taken with a 250 Ω load across Analog Output 1, 2 or 3.
NAMUR Enabled LOW
2.325 Vdc = 23.16 sfps = baseline (example: actual flow output varies from 1-5 volts)
0.900 Vdc = idR In Progress
1.000 Vdc = momentary state
2.326 Vdc = after 3 seconds. idR values are displayed now.
NAMUR Enabled HIGH
2.325 Vdc = 23.16 sfps = baseline (example: actual flow output varies from 1-5 volts)
5.250 Vdc = idR In Progress
1.000 Vdc = momentary state
2.326 Vdc = after 3 seconds. idR values are displayed now.
NAMUR Enabled Disabled
2.325 Vdc = 23.16 sfps = baseline (example: actual flow output varies from 1-5 volts)
1.000 Vdc = idR In Progress
2.326 Vdc = after 3 seconds. idR values are displayed now.
Using Digital Outputs
Digital busses (includes HART, Modbus, and FOUNDATION Fieldbus/PROFIBUS) are mutually exclusive, meaning only one can be active at a
time. When a particular digital output is specified at order time the unit is configured appropriately at the factory. Use the ST100A Series
configuration software (Configuration/Output) to change the digital output selection. Refer to the ST100A Series Configuration Software
manual 06EN003481 for details. Note that enabling a digital bus will deactivate the other digital bus currently in effect. Figure 55 below shows
an example dialog box produced by the software when the user assigns 4-20 mA #1 to HART Flow with another digital bus already active.

F
OUNDATION Fieldbus/PROFIBUS operation requires the optional Fieldbus/PROFIBUS add-on card installed on the main board. Refer to
the F
OUNDATION Fieldbus manual (06EN003482) and PROFIBUS manual (06N003483) for operation details on these digital outputs.
