5.4 Trimming the milliamp outputs
Trimming the mA output creates a common measurement range between the transmitter and the device
that receives the mA output. For example, a transmitter might send a 4 mA signal that the receiving
device reports incorrectly as 3.8 mA. If the transmitter output is trimmed correctly, it will send a
signal appropriately compensated to ensure that the receiving device actually indicates a 4 mA signal.
You must trim the mA output at both the 4 mA and 20 mA points to ensure appropriate compensation
across the entire output range.
Perform a milliamp trim on all mA outputs available on your transmitter. Before performing the trim,
ensure that your transmitter terminals are configured for the input/outputs that will be used in your
application (see Section 6.3).
You can trim the outputs with ProLink II or a Communicator.
5.4.1 Milliamp output trim with ProLink II
See Figure 5-5 for the mA output trim procedure.
Note the following:
• If you are trimming the primary mA output, and you are connected to the
transmitter via HART/Bell202, the HART/Bell202 signal to ProLink II will
affect the reading. Disconnect ProLink II before reading the output, then
reconnect and resume the trim, after taking the reading. If you are using any
other protocol, this is not required.
• Any trimming performed on the output should not exceed ± 200 microamps.
If more trimming is required, contact Micro Motion customer support.
