TRANSMITTER CHARACTERIZATION—This 
selection lets you instruct the controller to 
characterize a linear input to represent a non-linear 
one. If characterization is performed by the 
transmitter itself, then select LINEAR. 
 ATTENTION   Prompt only appears when a linear 
actuation is selected at prompt IN1 TYPE. 
FOR EXAMPLE: 
If Input 1 is a 4 to 20 mA signal, but the signal 
represents a type K H thermocouple, then configure 
K TC H and the controller will characterize the 4 to 
20 mA signal so that it is treated as a type K 
thermocouple input (high range). 
Parameter definitions are the same as in IN1 TYPE. 
IN1 HIGH 
–999. To 9999. Floating 
(in engineering units) 
INPUT 1 HIGH RANGE VALUE—This value in 
engineering units is displayed for all inputs but can 
only be changed for inputs configured for linear or 
square root transmitter characterization. 
For Inputs with Linear or Square Root transmitter 
characterization, you can scale the Input signal to 
display the values you want for 0 % and 100 %. 
EXAMPLE:  
  Process Variable = Flow 
  Range of Flow = 0 to 250 Liters/Minute 
  Actuation (Input 1) = 4 to 20 mA 
  Characterization (XMITTER 1) = LINEAR 
  Set IN1 HIGH value to 250  
  Set IN1 LOW value to 0 
 Then:  
      4 mA = 0 Liters/Minute 
    12 mA = 125 Liters/Minute 
    20 mA = 250 Liters/Minute 
 ATTENTION   If Input 1 is selected as the PV 
Source, then the range of the control Setpoint will be 
limited by the range of units selected here.
