DOWNSCALE BURNOUT will force the 
Input 1 signal to the lower range value when 
the sensor fails. Diagnostic message IN1 
FAIL intermittently flashed on the lower 
display. 
The controller remains in Automatic control 
mode and adjusts the controller output signal 
in response to the lower range Input 1 signal 
developed by the Burnout circuitry. 
 
NOFS

This selection does not provide input failure 
detection and should only be used when a 
thermocouple input is connected to another 
instrument which supplies the Burnout 
current. (For this selection, no burnout signal 
is sent to the sensor.) when a thermocouple 
input is connected to another instrument 
which supplies the Burnout current. (For this 
selection, no burnout signal is sent to the 
sensor.) 
 ATTENTION  For Burnout to function 
properly on a 0-20 mA input type (or a 0-5V 
type that uses a dropping resistor), the 
dropping resistor must be remotely located 
(across the transmitter terminals).  
Otherwise, the input at the UDC terminals 
will always be 0 mA (i.e., within the normal 
operating range) when the 0-20 mA line is 
opened. 
EMISS 609 
0.01 to 1.00 
 
EMISSIVITY is a correction factor applied to 
the Radiamatic input signal that is the ratio of 
the actual energy emitted from the target to 
the energy which would be emitted if the 
target were a perfect radiator. 
Available only for Radiamatic inputs.
