4.9 Analog Outputs
Each analog output offers a standard 4-20 mA factory configuration.
Analog outputs provide a means of transmitting temperature data directly
from the unit to an external data-gathering system or monitoring
equipment. The EasyGrid Base provides one analog output for each
temperature channel present in the unit.
Wire length and gage are related when connecting analog outputs.
For a run of 100 m or less, recommended gage is 24 AWG or greater. The longer the run, the smaller the
recommended gage will be. Recommendations call for shielded wire, or for installation in a metal conduit.
Please refer to Channel Setup and Analog Output Scale section of the Nortech Client II User Guide for detailed
information.
4.10 Connection - USB
The USB configuration port is accessible off the side panel in the lower left section.
