Changed line 84 from:
SP 12 - For special problem #12, please assume a 4-20 mA signal from the measurement transducer. From [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current_loop | Wikipedia - Current Loop]]: For industrial process control instruments, analog 4–20 mA and 10–50 mA current loops are commonly used for analog signaling, with 4 mA representing the lowest end of the range and 20 mA the highest. The key advantages of the current loop are that the accuracy of the signal is not affected by voltage drop in the interconnecting wiring, and that the loop can supply operating power to the device. Even if there is significant electrical resistance in the line, the current loop transmitter will maintain the proper current, up to its maximum voltage capability. The live-zero represented by 4 mA allows the receiving instrument to detect some failures of the loop, and also allows transmitter devices to be powered by the same current loop (called two-wire transmitters). Such instruments are used to measure pressure, temperature, flow, pH or other process variables. A current loop can also be used to control a valve positioner or other output actuator. An analog current loop can be converted to a voltage input with a precision resistor. Since input terminals of instruments may have one side of the current loop input tied to the chassis ground (earth), analog isolators may be required when connecting several instruments in series.

The purpose of the homework in this class is to reinforce concepts discussed in the reading material and re-emphasized in class.  Unfortunately, due to time constraints, students often view homework as busywork necessary to get a grade.  Getting the answer becomes all important rather than learning the concept.  Therefore, the first part of each homework assignment will be to write a sentence or two stating the purpose of the problem, and what concept was being reinforcedIn other words, state why this homework problem added to your education.  Ten percent of the homework grade will be given for this qualitative statement of purpose on each assignment.

Homework is due at the beginning of the class period.  Late homework may be handed in for half credit before the next exam.  When you go on an interview trip, please work the homework in advance to avoid the late penalty.  The solution key may be consulted when doing late homework.  Don’t forget to write the purpose of the assignment first.
