This logic can also be reversed (NORMALLY OPEN to NORMALLY CLOSED or vice versa).
Use the Discrete Input logic parameters to set the state of each discrete input.

Read the current state of discrete input 1 in Discrete Input 1 Scaled State (2.9.2.2)
(Page 209) and the current state of discrete input 2 in Discrete Input 2 Scaled State (2.9.2.4)
(Page 209).
See Discrete inputs (Page 45) for complete details on wiring the discrete inputs. To override
a level using a discrete input, see Backup Level Override (2.9.1) (Page 208).
7.4 mA Control
7.4.1 mA output
The SITRANS LUT400 has one mA output, used for communications with other devices.
Example:
Configuring the mA output to send a 4 to 20 mA signal corresponding to a scaled value of
10% to 90% of maximum process level on a 60 m transducer:

22.8 set maximum mA level above 20 mA
1)
If the level reading drops below 6 m, the mA output drops below 4 mA.
2)
If the level reading rises above 54 m, the mA output rises above 20 mA.
