2.3 Configuring the Current Sensor
Note
When range Σ link (see section 2.1) is set to on, the external current sensor ranges of the input elements
assigned to the same wiring unit are set to the same range. When range Σ link is set to off, the external
current sensor ranges of the input elements can be set independently even when they are assigned to the
same wiring unit.
External Current Sensor Range and Conversion Ratio Configuration Example
When you measure a current with a maximum value of 100 A using a current sensor that produces 10 mV
when 1 A of current is flowing, the maximum voltage that the current sensor produces is 10 mV/A × 100 A = 1
V. Therefore, configure the settings as indicated below.
• External current sensor range: 1 V
• External current sensor conversion ratio: 10 mV/A
