Analog output trim is done on all process field
transmitters that do not communicate over a digital
protocol like Profibus or Foundation Fieldbus.

Modern electronics use an A/D to digitize a value from a
sensor, a microprocessor to process the value and a D/A to
output the process value as an analog signal.

Adjusting the zero and span of the D/A is commonly
called 'trim'. It trims the D/A output a small amount,
generally about ±1% at the zero and at the span
(separately), generally to match a variation or deviation
of an analog input's resistance value.

Trim is NOT setting the URV and LRV values to correspond to
process inputs, as was once done with analog electronic
transmitters.

A pressure transmitter with a range of 0-100 bar.The accuracy of the instrument is 1% of upper range value? The pressure indicating transmitter is showing the system pressure is 50 bar. b. When you include the error, what is the minimum possible pressure in our fuel gas system? i. 49.5 bar ii. 49 bar iii. 1 bar iv. 0.5 bar We want to change the filter cartridge. We must depressure the fuel gas system. c. After we depressure the system in preparation for maintenance, the transmitter displays a pressure of +0.1 bar. At this time, what is the possible range of pressures in our fuel system? i. +0.099 to +0.101 bar ii. 0 to +0.2 bar iii. -0.1 to +0.3 bar iv. -0.9 to +1.1 bar
