Options analog_channel

Specify the Analog channel number, for example, a2 or a4 (this also applies to

Temperature models).

type

Select the type of input being measured, either Current or Voltage. The default is

Current.

range

Select the range for the measurement type. For current, the range is:

z0-20 (0-20mA) This is the default.

z4-20 (04-20mA)

For voltage, the range is:

z1 (+/-1V)

z5 (+/-5V)

z10 (+/-10V) This is the default.

z150 (+/-150mV)

z500 (+/-500mV)

alarm

Configures alarm settings when the Analog input trigger is activated.

level

You can specify up to five alarm trigger/clear severity levels. If the Trigger Type is Low, an alarm is triggered when the input drops below the specified Trigger value; other severity level trigger values must decrease in value with each subsequent level. If the Trigger Type is High, an alarm is triggered when the input is higher than the specified Trigger value; other severity level trigger values must increase in value with each subsequent level. To clear an alarm, the input must drop below the specified value when Trigger Type is High or go above the specified value when Trigger Type is Low.

mode

Enables/disables an alarm level. The default is off.

trigger-type

If the Trigger Type is Low, an alarm is triggered when the input drops below the specified Trigger value; other severity level trigger values must decrease in value with each subsequent level. If the Trigger Type is High, an alarm is triggered when the input is higher than the specified Trigger value; other severity level trigger values must increase in value with each subsequent level.
