Q. How do I span the 4-20 mA signal?
A. The 20 mA set point is entered as a frequency, using four rotary switches. A simple calculation determines the frequency. The unit is microcontroller-based, and it digitally adjusts itself when the 20 mA frequency is entered.

Q. How do I power the flow sensor?
A. The flow sensor gets its power from the AO55, which gets its power from the 4-20 mA signal itself. Both the flow sensor and the AO55 transmitter can operate on the 4 mA minimum current.

Q. What does "loop powered" mean? What does "two-wire 4-20 mA mean?"
A. They basically mean the same thing. See the answer above.
