Program 4-20 mA Analog Output
Program the  meter to output an analog signal based on its display value. This signal
is commonly output to a PLC or chart recorder.
Note: By default, the analog output will transmit the rate value as it is displayed on the meter. It is pos-
sible to output the total, grand total or some other value. Please refer to Program Analog Output
