5-5. mA output functions
Code 31 *OUTP.F For the SC202 the output may be chosen as linear to input, or configured in a
21 point table to a particular linearization. Enable the table setup in code 31,
and configure the table in code 35.
Code 32 *BURN Diagnostic error messages can signal a problem by sending the output signals
upscale or downscale (21 mA or 3.6 mA when HART or distributor comm. is
non-used, 3.9 mA when HART or distributor comm. is used). This is called
upscale or downscale burnout, from the analogy with thermocouple failure
signaling of a burned-out or open circuit sensor. The pulse burnout setting
gives a 21 mA signal for the first
30 seconds of an alarm condition. After the “pulse” the signal returns to normal.
This allows a latching alarm unit to record the error. In the case of the EXA the
diagnostics are extensive and cover the whole range of possible sensor faults.
Code 35 *TABLE The table function allows the configuration of an output curve by 21 steps
(intervals of 5%). The following example shows how the table may be
configured to linearize the output with a mA curve.

Example: 0-25% Sulfuric acid
Concentration Output function is done in de following order:
• Set *OUTP.F. (Service Code 31) to table
• Set the Concentration range in % (Service Code 55)
• Set table values (%output and Conductivity values) in *TABLE (Service Code 35)
