Isolated Analog I/O Module Tag Definitions

Ch[x].RateAlarmLimit

REAL

Rate of change in Engineering Units/Second
If the absolute value of the change between samples
divided by the sample time exceeds this value, the
I.Ch[x].RateAlarm tag is sets.

Any positive value
0.0 = default (This value represents
no change between samples.)

Ch[x].LowSignal

REAL

Signal value that lets you scale signal units (V, mA) into
Engineering Units.
Corresponds to the C.Ch[x].LowEngineering tag. That is,
this tag’s value is scaled to the lowest Engineering Unit.
For more information on how Signal values correspond to
Engineering values, see

page 37

Any value that is less than the
C.Ch[x].HighSignal tag value.

Current input type: 4.0 mA =

default

Voltage input type: -10.0V=

default

Ch[x].HighSignal

REAL

Signal scaling value that lets you scale signal units (V, mA)
into Engineering Units.
Corresponds to the C.Ch[x].HighEngineering tag. That is,
this tag’s value is scaled to the highest Engineering Unit.
For more information on how Signal values correspond to
Engineering values, see

page 37

Any value that is greater than the
C.Ch[x].LowSignal tag value

Current input type: 20.0 mA =

default

Voltage input type: 10.0V=

default

Ch[x].LowEngineering

REAL

Low engineering scaling point
Corresponds to the C.Ch[x].LowSignal tag value.
For more information on how Signal values correspond to
Engineering values, see

page 37

0.0 = default
(In voltage applications, default =
C.Ch[x].LowSignal tag value)

Ch[x].HighEngineering

REAL

High engineering scaling point
Corresponds to the C.Ch[x].HighSignal tag value.
For more information on how Signal values correspond to
Engineering values, see

page 37

100.0 = default
(In voltage applications, default =
C.Ch[x].HighSignal tag value)

Ch[x].LLAlarmLimit

REAL

Low Low Process Alarm limit
Triggers the I.Ch[x].LLAlarm tag when the I.Ch[x].Data tag
value is less than this tag’s value.

0.0 = default

Ch[x].LAlarmLimit

REAL

Low Process Alarm limit
Triggers the I.Ch[x].LAlarm tag when the I.Ch[x].Data tag
value is less than this tag’s value

0.0 = default

Ch[x].HAlarmLimit

REAL

High Process Alarm Limit
Triggers the I.Ch[x].HAlarm tag when the I.Ch[x].Data tag
value is greater than this tag’s value.

100.0 = default

Ch[x].HHAlarmLimit

REAL

High High Process Alarm Limit
Triggers the I.Ch[x].HHAlarm tag when the I.Ch[x].Data
tag value is greater than this tag’s value.

100.0 = default

Ch[x].AlarmDeadband

REAL

Deadband that keeps Process Alarms triggered as long as
the I.Ch[x].Data tag value remains within the deadband of
the Process Alarm’s value

Any non-negative value
0.0 = default
