Using 4 – 20 mA Inputs/Outputs

The 1336 IMPACT drive provides a 4 – 20 mA input and a 4 – 20 mA
output. You can use the parameters that are available for the
4 – 20 mA input and output in the same way that you would use the
analog input and output parameters. For example, you can use a scale,
offset, and/or filter parameter to adjust the input value and a scale
and/or offset parameter to adjust the output value.

Two advantages for using the 4 – 20 mA are:

The current supply is regulated to adjust the voltage as needed to
keep a constant current moving through the system.

Noise in the system does not affect current as much as it does
voltage.

Figure 9.5 shows an example of a 1336 IMPACT drive that is used as
a master drive to control three other 1336 IMPACT drives. Notice that
you can have a maximum of three slave drives.
