Analog Input/Output Installation and Configuration 8-3

Analog Inputs

FlowShark models 5000-CG, 5000-CG-1, 5000-CL, and 5000-CS
support the monitoring of two analog input 4-20mA signals from
other instruments. These signals typically represent measurements
made by other devices, such as flow meters, pressure sensors, or
level transducers. To properly configure the monitor using Profile

®

,

you must know the signal scale and engineering units (e.g., 4 to
20mA = 0 to 20MGD).

Perform the following steps to connect analog inputs (maximum of
two) to the ADS FlowShark monitor.
