Using the Optional Analog Outputs

9300 Series User’s Guide	Using the Optional Analog Outputs

The settings for Analog Input modules are as follows:

Setup	Available Settings	Creation	Description
Registers	Available Settings	Default	Description
Registers		Default

	Not Used
Port	I/O Exp AI1 to	Not Used	The input hardware channel
	I/O Exp AI4

	-1 x 109 to 1 x 109		Defines what value appears in the ScaledValu
Full Scale	-1 x 109 to 1 x 109	1	output register when the highest possible value
			from the hardware is applied

Zero Scale 1	-1 x 109 to 1 x 109		Defines what value appears in the ScaledValu
Zero Scale 1	-1 x 109 to 1 x 109	0	output register when the lowest possible value
			from the hardware is applied

1An arbitrary input value can be treated as the Zero Scale (i.e. a 4-20mA input is capable of generating a 0 to X output).

The four optional Analog Output ports can output energy pulses to an RTU or perform equipment control operations. Both types of Analog Output (either 0- 20mA or 0-1mA) can deliver a continuous DC signal. Analog Output modules control these hardware ports.

You use ION Designer to create and configure these ION modules. Create an Analog Output module for each output port you are going to use, and link their Source input to a value you want to reflect through the analog outputs. Alter the setup registers as required:

Setup	Available Settings	Creation	Description
Registers	Available Settings	Default	Description
Registers		Default

	Not Used
Port	I/O AO1 to	Not Used	The output hardware channel
	I/O AO4 inclusive

	-1 x 109 to 1 x 109		Defines what value appears in the ScaledValu
Full Scale	-1 x 109 to 1 x 109	1	output register when the highest possible value
			from the hardware is applied

	-1 x 109 to 1 x 109		Defines what value appears in the ScaledValu
Zero Scale	-1 x 109 to 1 x 109	0	output register when the lowest possible value
			from the hardware is applied

Setting Zero Scale for 4 to 20mA Outputs

If you want your 9300 meter’s 0 to 20 mA analog output ports to operate as 4 to 20 mA outputs (i.e. delivers a 4 mA current with a zero Source input value to the Analog Output module), use the following formula:

Zero Scale = - 0.25 * Full Scale

For example, with a Full Scale value of 100, your Zero Scale setting would be -25.
