Terms – Analogue Input
   

This term allows you to set a range of input percentage values, for input from an Analogue Input (942) device, during which the condition is met. This is useful when creating a condition for a variable input, such as temperature.

Note:

 

To add a Analogue Input term to a condition, see Create a Term.

To reverse the logical state of the term, see Invert a Term.

Enter Input

Assign Input to Group

  1. Select the Analogue Input term in Conditions view.

  2. In the Input section of Properties, click in the Group field.

  3. Enter the group number to which you want the Analogue Input to belong.

Input Source

The Input Source is the address of the Analogue Input (942).

  1. Click in the Input Source field.

  2. Enter the input address; a value in the range of 1 to 65535. (Enter 0 or press Delete to set to 'Not Used').

  3. Click to apply the changes. The name of the term changes to reflect the type of condition you have specified.

Input Range

This is the range (in %) at which this term will be true.

From

Set the minimum percentage value at which this term will be true. For example, if you want this Term to be true when the input percentage is at least 10 %, type 10 in this field.

  1. Click in the From field and highlight existing percentage value (which is 0 %).

  2. Enter a new value from 0 to 100.

To

Set the maximum percentage value at which this term will be true.  For example, if you want this Term to be TRUE when the input percentage is at a value up to 90 %, type 90 in this field. This Term will be TRUE while the input is between the From and To range.

  1. Click in the To field and highlight existing percentage value (which is 100 %).

  2. Enter a new value from 0 to 100. Note that the maximum percentage value should be equal to, or greater than, the minimum percentage value.

  3. Click to apply changes.

Note:

  • Take care to avoid assigning a digital input to an Analogue Input condition, as the condition may not behave as expected.
