Abstract
A transmitter includes a processor that connects to a sensor for outputting measurement data and outputs setting data based on the measurement data, a current controller that outputs output data based on the setting data from the processor, a current output interface that outputs a first current signal based on the output data from the current controller, and a current input interface that receives input of a second current signal and outputs input data based on the second current signal to the current controller. The current input interface outputs internal input data based on the first current signal to the current controller as the input data when receiving input of the first current signal as the second current signal. The current controller detects failure of the transmitter by comparing the setting data and the internal input data.
