NONE 
NO BURNOUT—Input 1 display freezes at the last 
valid value. If Input 1 is used for PV, then the 
instrument assumes its pre-configured Failsafe 
Output (selected in the CONTROL Set up Group) 
when a failed input condition is detected (does not 
apply for an input out of range). Diagnostic message 
IN1 FAIL is intermittently flashed on the lower 
display. 
 
UP 
UPSCALE BURNOUT—Forces the Input 1 signal to 
the full-scale 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 accordingly. 
 
DOWN 
DOWNSCALE BURNOUT—Forces 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 accordingly. 
 
NO FS 
NO FAILSAFE—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.)  
 ATTENTION  The Thermocouple Health feature is 
disabled when NO FS is configured. 
EMISSIV1 
0.01 to 1.00 
EMISSIVITY—A correction factor applied to the 
Radiamatic input signal that is the ratio of the actual 
energy emitted from the target to the energy that 
would be emitted if the target were a perfect radiator.
Available only for Radiamatic inputs.
