Configuring a Set Point Control via Analog Input
≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡
The following example illustrates how to configure an easYgen for using an external load set point via analog in-
put [AI 03]. The external set point may be enabled using a switch, wired to discrete input [DI 04] (configure pa-
rameter 1262 “Alarm class” to control). An analog 0 to 20 mA input is to be used where 4 mA corresponds with
0 % power (0 MW), 12 mA corresponds with 50 % power (1 MW), and 20 mA corresponds with 100 % power
(2 MW).

Configuring the Load Controller
The load controller is to be configured that it uses a fixed load setpoint 1 of 2 MW unless a switch energizes dis-
crete input [DI 04] for enabling a variable load setpoint 2, which is controlled by analog input [AI 03].
From the main screen on the unit select Parameter -> Configuration -> Application config. -> Controller config. -
> Load control config. and configure the following parameters:
