Description
When the communication resistance is turned on, a 250 Ω resistor is connected to the 24 V loop
power output inside the instrument. The communication resistance is used to provide amplitude
to the HART communication signals or BRAIN communication signals superimposed in the
transmission line.
Set this to off when communication signals are not superimposed in the transmission line.
