5.1.9. RTD/analog inputs
The machine terminals equipped with an RTD/analog module (RTD1) have eight
general purpose analog inputs for DC measurement. The RTD/analog inputs are
galvanically isolated from the machine terminal power supply and enclosure.
However, the inputs share a common ground.
For technical data of the RTD/analog inputs, refer to Table 5.2.1-4 on page 81.
The parameters for the RTD/analog inputs are included in the parameter lists on the
CD-ROM Technical Descriptions of Functions (see “Related documents” on
page 10).
5.1.9.1. Selection of input signal type
The general purpose RTD/analog inputs accept voltage-, current- or resistance-type
signals. The inputs are configured for a particular type of input signal by means of
the channel-specific “Input mode” parameters that can be found in the menu
Configuration/RTD1/Input #. The default value is “Off” which means that
the channel is not sampled at all, and the IN+, IN- and SHUNT terminals are at high
impedance state.
5.1.9.2. Selection of input signal range
For each measuring mode, a separate parameter is provided for choosing between
the available measurement ranges. These channel-specific parameters, which can be
found in the menu Configuration/RTD1/Input #, are named Voltage
range, Current range, Resistance range and Temperature range.
