11.4.1 Inputs
Channels 1 and 2 (Analogue inputs IN1 and IN2)
Channel Type:
Measurement
[1]
Input Number
: [number (mode)]
[2]
Characteristic: Linear
(Linear, User, 1:1 (TEST), sensor)
[3]
[1]: Information about the channel type -
Measurement
.
[2]: Information about the set operating mode for the input assigned to the channel.
[3]: The characteristic is typically set to
Linear
. Also there are available other setting
options (for example
User characteristic
). For input in the R/RTD (2-w.) operating
mode, there are characteristics of the individual sensor types available.
Channels 3 and 4 (PULS type inputs IN3 and IN4)
Channel Type:
Measurement
[1]
Input Number
: [number (mode)]
[2]
Characteristic: Linear
(Linear, User, 1:1 (TEST), State, Impulse)
[3]
[1]: Information about the channel type -
Measurement
.
[2]: Information about the set operating mode for the input assigned to the channel.
[3]: For input in the
Frequency
operating mode: the characteristic is typically set to
Linear
, other setting options are also available (for example
User characteristic
). For
input in the
Impulse
operating mode: the possibility of defining a value corresponding
to a single pulse. For input in the
State
operating mode: option to define values
corresponding to state 0 (open circuit) and 1 (closed circuit).
Channels 5 and 6 (Math channels)
Channel Type:
Computed
[1]
Formula:
Disabled
(Disabled, Formula entered by the user)
[2]
Characteristic: Linear
(Linear, User, 1:1 (TEST))
[3]
[1]: Information about the channel type -
Computed
.
[2]: Touching in the 'Formula' field results in toggling to the coefficients settings window
(by default, the channel is set as
Disabled
).
