Figure 25 Analog output type (current or voltage) selection in Insight
Receiving analog output settings automatically from probe
The transmitter can receive the analog output settings automatically from the connected
probe in the following cases:
1. The transmitter is a new unit and has not been configured yet.
2. The user has removed the analog output configuration from the transmitter.
