CAUTION!
If you set mA Output Fault Action or Frequency Output Fault Action to None, be sure to set Digital
Communications Fault Action to None. If you do not, the output will not report actual process data,
and this may result in measurement errors or unintended consequences for your process.
Restriction
If you set Digital Communications Fault Action to NAN, you cannot set mA Output Fault Action or Frequency
Output Fault Action to None. If you try to do this, the transmitter will not accept the configuration.
6.4 Configure the discrete output
The discrete output is used to report specific flowmeter or process conditions. The discrete
output parameters control which condition is reported and how it is reported.
The discrete output parameters include:
•
Discrete Output Source
•
Discrete Output Polarity
•
Discrete Output Fault Action
Restriction
Before you can configure the discrete output, you must configure a channel to operate as a discrete
output.
Important
Whenever you change a discrete output parameter, verify all other discrete output parameters
before returning the flowmeter to service. In some situations, the transmitter automatically loads a
set of stored values, and these values may not be appropriate for your application.
6.4.1 Configure Discrete Output Source
ProLink II ProLink > Configuration > Frequency/Discrete Output > Discrete Output > DO Assignment
ProLink III Device Tools > Configuration > I/O > Outputs > Discrete Output
Field Communicator Configure > Manual Setup > Inputs/Outputs > Discrete Output > DO Assignment
Overview
Discrete Output Source controls which flowmeter condition or process condition is reported
via the discrete output.
Procedure
Set Discrete Output Source to the desired option.
