Test Analog Outputs for Desired

Readings

Syntax: AQTEST x yyy.yyy<cr>

Using the AQTEST command, you can test the analog output by forcing

the output to correspond to a chosen value.

Where
x

= Output quantity (aw / T / ppm)

yyy.yyy

= Value

For example:

>aqtest aw 0.5

CH1 aw : 0.5000 aw 10.000mA

CH2 T : 22.3 'C 7.568mA

>

The set values remain valid until you give the command AQTEST

without a value or RESET the transmitter.

Set Error Outputs

Syntax: AERR<cr>

The factory default state for analog outputs during error condition is

0 mA. Be careful when selecting the new error value: the error state of

the transmitter should not cause problems in process monitoring.

Example:

>aerr

Ch1 error out : 0.000mA ?

Ch2 error out : 0.000mA ?

NOTE

The error output value must be within the output type’s valid range.

NOTE

The error output value is shown only when there are minor electrical

faults such as a humidity sensor open circuit. When there is a severe

device malfunction, such as an analog output electronics failure or a

microprocessor ROM/RAM failure, the error output value is not

necessarily shown.
