When the output is disabled, the current is by default limited to 2mA. Max. driving capacity
1000Ohm @ 27VDC. If only powered by the loop, the backlight will not be activated.
The total loop resistance may not exceed 1000 Ohm and may not be less than 330 Ohm (at 30mA).
This means that the total resistance of other loop-devices may not exceed 670Ohm.

Terminals A1-A2: HART Communication – Type CR
The E018-P is suitable for connecting a HART master device. This HART master device is
connected to Terminal A1 or Terminal A2 to enable HART communication with the unit.
Optionally, a HART communicator can be connected in the loop as well, provided that a suitable
resistance is inserted in the loop.
