11... APPENDIX A: MASTER ICON FILE REFERENCE

CONFIGURATION OPTIONS:

Icon Name: Specify the name for the channel. This name will show directly under the icon within the Program Net. If no name is User provided, the Backplane Port (1 to 6) and Channel (A to H) where the actual Interface Module channel is installed will be used for the name.

Output Name: Specify a name for the Output signal from this icon. This Output Name will be referenced by other icons downstream in the Program Net.

Range: Specify the input range to be used for this channel. For optimum resolution, choose the narrowest range that will meet the signal fluctuation without exceeding the Full Scale Range. If the input exceeds the selected range, an over-range value will be logged.

Units: Select Degrees C or F

Filtering: First order noise filtering can be enabled during channel reading. First order filtering reduces high frequency noise that may be picked up by sensor wiring with the cost that it slows down the rate at which a channel can be sampled. See the OMP-MODL User’s Manual Appendix for discussion on use of filtering.

AC Noise Reject: Enables software filtering of 50Hz or 60Hz noise on inputs. See the OMP-MODL User’s Manual Appendix for an explanation of the 50/60 Hz filtering technique.

Change: Click on CHANGE to switch the icon / dialog box between thermistor, resistance, or RTD type input.
