Analog Alarms 4.2
The RPS AB6's analog alarm inputs
The RPS AB6's 8 analog alarm inputs measure continuous ranges of voltage or current. Analog alarms
are typically used to monitor battery voltage, charging current, temperature or other continuously
variable conditions.
The measurement range of the analog channels is –90 to +90 VDC or 4 to 20 mA.
You can connect analog alarm inputs to the RPS AB6 by using the 8-pin analog alarm connectors. For
the 8-pin analog connector's pinout information, see the figure below.

By default, the analog inputs are configured to measure voltage. You can switch the analog inputs to
measure current by resetting jumpers on the RPS AB6's circuit board. For instructions, see
Section
4.2.1, "Switching Analog Alarms to Current Operation."
