10.12 Perform loop tests
A loop test is a way to verify that the transmitter and the remote device are
communicating properly. A loop test also helps you know whether you need to trim mA
outputs.
10.12.1 Perform loop tests using ProLink II
Prerequisites
Before performing a loop test, configure the channels for the transmitter inputs and
outputs that will be used in your application.
Follow appropriate procedures to ensure that loop testing will not interfere with existing
measurement and control loops.
ProLink II must be running and must be connected to the transmitter.
