Print Options (PoPt)

Selecting YES for the print options allows the operator to scroll through

the available options using the PAR button. The up and down arrow keys
toggle between “yes” and “no” with “yes” enabling the option to be printed
when a print function occurs.

SECOND ANALOG INPUT MODULE (7-2N) (OPTIONAL)

The Second Analog Input can be configured as a Remote Setpoint Input or

as a Secondary Input for Internal Cascade control. As a Remote Setpoint, the
controller can operate as an External Cascade controller, Setpoint Slave
controller and as a Ratio controller. See

Cascade Control, page 56, for an

overview of cascade control.

Operation mode (OPEr)

The Second Analog Input must be configured for either Remote Setpoint

Operation or Internal Cascade Operation (single controller cascade).

Square Root Linearization (root)

In some cases it may be necessary to linearize the Second Analog input by

use of the square root function.

Selection of ‘yES’ results in the square root linearization of the Second

Analog Input(only). Selection of ‘NO’, results in linear scaling. The square
root linearization exhibits a 3% low cut point (17% of scaled reading) to
eliminate reading jitter at low flow rates. The following example illustrates
the scaling of the Second Analog Input with square root linearization.

Example: It is necessary to square root linearize the output of a differential

pressure transmitter to indicate and control flow. The defining equation is
F

= 278 D p, where D P = 0 - 500 PSI, transmitted linearly by a 4 - 20 mA

transducer. At full flow rate (

D P = 500 PSI), the flow is 6216 ft
