AM 9898 cRIO HART current measurement range

I am considering to buy a AM9898 for use with 4-20mA pressure sensor with HART. 

According to the limited information on the AM 9898 on the web, the module is measuring 4-20mA.

Does anybode know if this module also cover the "error band" (current less then 4mA and current more then 20mA)?
Often I see sensors and equipment only stated to be 4-20mA, but actually also covers a bit outside this range for error indication.

Hi Ladejarlen,

 

My name is Mikko and I work as an Applications engineer here at National Instruments. 

Since there is no mention in the documentation that the module would cover measurements outside of the 4-20 mA range, I'm afraid that it is not supported.

The AM 9898 is actually a module manufactured by Amtec Solutions Group and the user manual is also from Amtec. You can contact Amtec support if you want to know something that is not documented in the user manual.
