9: Analog Input, Output and Relay Settings

To Configure Analog Settings

Using Web Manager

To configure analog input, go to the Setup tab/page and click Analog Input > Input 1 > Configuration in the menu.

Using the CLI

To enter the analog input command level: enable -> config -> analog -> input <number>

Using XML

Include in your file: <configgroup name=”analog input” instance=”1”>

Analog Output

Note: Analog output is only available on the xSenso 21A2. When output is tracking input, input is the single source of control. When tracking is disabled, there will be no other source of control and the state of output is undefined. Instead of leaving it undefined, we just put it back to startup value which also serves as a safe value to be used when output is not defined (like during startup output is undefined before any control kicks in).

Input Settings

Description

Display

Select to enable or disable an output value to be displayed with designated title and

 

units in the web manager, XML and CLI analog chanel as well as Tunnel and Action

 

Connect application. You can hide an output by disabling it if you are not using it.

 

 

Title

Enter the analog output title as it will appear in web manager, XML and CLI. Leave this

 

field blank to utilize the default “Output N”, where N is the analog output number. For

 

example, you can name the reading, “Water Valve”, if a water flow controlling valve is

 

connected to the xSenso device.

 

 

Type

Select type of Voltage or Current:

 

Select Voltage for an output range from 0 to 10 Volts.

 

Select Current for an output range from 0 to 20 mA.

 

 

Startup Value

Enter the Startup Value for the initial output value that will be asserted after the device

 

boots up. This will also take effect when Analog Input or Type is changed to avoid an

 

undefined output. This value may subsequently be replaced by a value mapped from

 

an input channel or by a value specified in an output command.

 

 

Analog Input

Select the appropriate Analog Input from the drop-down menu to specify the channel

 

number of the analog input the output will track.

 

 

Reading Low

Enter the Reading Low value which will be presented as the Output Low value.

 

 

Output Low

Enter the Output Low value which will be converted from the Reading Low value.

 

 

Reading HIgh

Enter the Reading HIgh value which will be presented as the Output HIgh value.

 

 

Output HIgh

Enter the Output High value which will be converted from the Reading High value.
