DCM-2 HART INTERFACE
 
Calibration - Feedback
FEEDBACK SIGNAL 
CALIBRATION
 
DCM-2 boards have the capability of providing 
a 4–20 mA output signal so that the drive’s true 
output shaft travel can be monitored remotely.  
The signal comes calibrated from the factory to 
provide a precise 4–20 mA signal corresponding 
to 0–100% drive travel.  Normally, calibration 
is not required even if the position reference 
calibration or direction of travel are changed, 
because the DCM-2 automatically compensates 
for these changes and appropriately scales the 
position feedback signal.  
 
If the Feedback must be changed, it is 
accomplished by using a Hart communication 
device.  First, navigate to the Configuration menu.  
Next, select the Feedback Setup submenu.  
Through this submenu, the Feedback range may 
be changed, as well as the curve.  Online help is 
available through the communication device.
