Analog Output
Note:
Analog output is only available on the xSenso 21A2. When output is tracking
input, input is the single source of control. When tracking is disabled, there will be no other
source of control and the state of output is undefined. Instead of leaving it undefined, we
just put it back to startup value which also serves as a safe value to be used when output
is not defined (like during startup output is undefined before any control kicks in).

Title
Enter the analog output title as it will appear in web manager, XML and CLI. Leave this
field blank to utilize the default “Output N”, where N is the analog output number. For

connected to the xSenso device.
