The available AI options are listed in the following table:

Option

Range

Description

AI type

0-1 mA

±1 mA

0-20 mA

4-20 mA

0-50 mA

±10 V

The AI module type. When connected to the device,
shows the actual AI type read from the AI module.

Zero scale

0/4 mA

Defines the low engineering scale (in primary units) for
the analog input corresponding to a lowest (zero) input
current (0 or 4 mA, or 0 V)

Full scale

1/20/50 mA, 10V

Defines the high engineering scale (in primary units) for
the analog input corresponding to a highest input
current (1, 20 or 50 mA, or 10 V)

Dec. Places

The number of decimal digits in a fractional part of the
scaled engineering value

Value label

An arbitrary name you can give the analog input value

NOTE:

Always save your AI setup to the site database in order to keep the labels you gives
the analog inputs. They are not stored in your device.

Scaling Non-directional Analog Inputs

When programming scales for non-directional analog inputs with a 0-1mA, 0-20mA or
4-20mA current option, provide both zero and full engineering scales. An example is
shown in the picture above for the 0-20 mA analog inputs. Each of the scales
operates independently.
