Loop Current Test
To verify that the THUM Adapter will work under all conditions, a loop current test should be
performed. This test will exercise the loop under the highest possible voltage drop
conditions.
1. Place loop in manual control.
2. Drive loop to high alarm level. For details, see wired device instruction manual.
• When the THUM Adapter is connected to a valve, this will need to be done at the current
source and not from the valve.
• When the THUM Adapter is connected to a transmitter, this will need to be performed at
the transmitter.
3. Place the THUM Adapter into fixed voltage drop mode.
