•DigitaltoAnalogue(“dA”)configuration
General
The AMS400A accepts digital, increment and decrement signals from
the controlling device. In automatic mode, the analogue output (to the
control device) changes in response to pulses on these two lines. In
manual mode, the operator adjusts the output using the front panel
keypad and the automatic “signals” are ignored.
Display
The display provides feedback using an analogue signal from the
control element or from a suitable measuring device. For example, if
you are controlling a valve, you will probably want to display the flow
rate.
You can also display the output signal level (in percent) by pressing the
AUTO
or
MAN
key.
StatusOutputs
There is a digital ‘status’ output to the controlling device to signal the
operating mode of the AMS400A, i.e., automatic or manual.
