4.1.2 Common Configuration for Analog Channels
Active Sensor Range
The active sensor range section is only available for 4-20 mA inputs and voltage sensor
inputs.
Sensor Range Min
and
Sensor Range Max
select the high and low limits for the sensor,
meaning values outside the value sensor range will be determined as out of range.
Sensor
The sensor section configures the sensor capabilities.
Sensor Unit
selects the sensor unit for the sensor, as printed on the sensor. An oil pressure
sensor might for instance be in Bar or psi. If the channel has a predefined sensor unit such
as thermistor or J1939 inputs, the sensor unit can not be changed.
Sensor Range Min
and
Sensor Range Max
select the sensor range values for minimum and
maximum values, as printed on the sensor.
Channels with a predefined sensor range can not be modified.
The sensor range min and max correspond to the active sensor range min and
max, if any.
Display
Configures how the channel is presented in gauges or bar graphs in the panels.
The channel can be configured to different views depending on what unit is selected. This is
seen in the US and Metric column.
Display Unit
selects the desired displayed unit for US and Metric values. The display unit
must be convertible from the Sensor Unit.
Display Range Min
and
Display Range Max
select the desired minimum and maximum
values displayed in the instrument, for US and Metric values.
