However, according to such a conventional two-wire type transmitter 100, only one temperature can be measured. That is, the measurement data at one point can only be transmitted to the host device. Therefore, when it is desired to measure temperatures at multiple points and transmit the measured data to the host device, a large number of 2-wire type transmitters 100 are provided, and a transmission path is provided between the 2-wire type transmitter 100 and the host device. L1 and L2 must be laid on each piece, and there is a problem that the cost is increased and the economy is uneconomical due to an increase in the number of cables to be laid and an increase in the number of laying steps. Further, in this way, the operating power of each 2-wire transmitter 100 is at least 4 at least.
Since the electric power of mA is consumed, that is, the electric power corresponding to the number of 4 mA × 2-wire type transmitter 100 is required at the minimum, the problem arises that the host device needs a large capacity power source. .
