Calibrating the Analog Output
The calibration procedure consists of calibrating the analog
output zero point (0 or 4 mA) and then calibrating the full scale
span point (20 mA). You enter, first the setpoint, and then the
actual value measured with a digital ammeter or voltmeter. The
analog outputs have a resolution of ±5.0 µA. Press the [
T] arrow
key to enter the Analog Output window.
