Filtering
The filtering feature changes the response time of the device to smooth
variations in output readings caused by rapid changes in input. Adjust the
filter time constant (in seconds) using the PV_FTIME parameter. Set the filter
time constant to zero to disable the filter feature.
Signal Conversion
Set the signal conversion type with the Linearization Type (L_TYPE)
parameter. View the converted signal (in percent of XD_SCALE) through the
FIELD_VAL parameter.
Choose from direct, indirect, or indirect square root signal conversion with the
L_TYPE parameter.
Direct
Direct signal conversion allows the signal to pass through the accessed
channel input value (or the simulated value when simulation is enabled).
Indirect
Indirect signal conversion convert s the signal linearly to the accessed channel
input value (or the simulated value when simulation is enabled) from its
specified rang e (XD _SC ALE) to the range and un its of the PV and OUT
parameters (OUT_SCALE).
OUT = Block output value and status
OUT_D = Discrete output that signals a selected alarm condition
