Application Setup - Display Amps, PSI, and Liquid Level
This example shows how to display current, pressure, and liquid
level at one annunciator panel. The motor current draw is displayed
in amps. The tank pressure is displayed in psi. The liquid level in
the holding tank is displayed in inches.
A three-position selector switch allows the operator to choose
between displaying the current draw for L1, L2, or L3 of the
three-phase motor. Two warning pilot lights indicate a low or high
liquid level condition in the holding tank. Each display is a 3-digit,
7-segment display. The displays have DC-sinking inputs and use
BCD data format.
