Frequency Span
Set High
Input (Hz)
7
High frequency value of the input
device. Exceeding this limit causes an
over-range error.
Enter value in Hz.
Set
Low
Input (Hz)
8
Low frequency value of the input
device. Exceeding this limit causes an
under -range error.
Enter value in Hz.
Output Range in
EU
High (EU)
5
High range value. Frequency span in
Hz is scaled to the output range in
EU.
Enter value in EU.
Low
(EU)
6
Low range value. Frequency span in
Hz is scaled to the output range in
EU.
Enter value in EU.
Settings
Bias
2
Bias value added to the output.
Enter value in EU.
Pulse Width
(Range)
9
The input signal is rejected if it is
below this pulse width. The frequency
of pulses above this width must be in
this frequency range; otherwise the
output goes to failsafe and a failure-
to-convert error occurs.
