Voltage with Supply
(selection menu)
– The Analog 1 Type “Voltage with Supply” selection operates the
Analog 1 input (pin 16) as a raw voltage input with an internal
pull-up supply voltage.
The output voltage is 10V (approx.) with a 3 mA current limit (to
the external load/device). Reference Table 5.
Use this selection for operating resistive devices such as
thermistors and photocells and reading the voltage in VCL
using the Monitor variable analog_input_volts_1 (0x3B2E), then
processing the value in the VCL program.

The analog voltage at input pin 16.
Percent
Analog_Input_Percent_1
0x3B39 0x00
0.0 – 100.0 %
0 – 1000
Read Only The percentage of the voltage at pin 16 based upon the High and
Low settings, i.e., the percent of:
((analog_input_volts_1) – (analog_input_1_low)) /
((analog_input_1_high) – (analog_input_1_low))
Low
Analog_Input_1_Low
0x32F3 0x00
0.0 – 11.0 V
0 – 1100
0.0 V The minimum input voltage before a fault is declared. When the
Analog 1 Type selection is Voltage with Supply, this set point
represents the 0% point for the normalized input.
Faults:
When the voltage falls below this parameter, it will trigger the
Analog_1_OUT_OF_RANGE fault (flash code 0xB1, Can Index
0x2620).
If assigning the Throttle to Analog 1, the resulting fault will become
the Throttle Input fault (flash code 0x42, CAN Index 0x2210).
If assigning the Brake to Analog 1, the resulting fault will become
the Brake Input fault (ash code 0x44) if Brake_Source = 1.
High
Analog_Input_1_High
0x32F4 0x00
0.0 – 11.0 V
0 – 110
5.1 V The maximum input voltage before a fault is declared. When
the Analog 1 Type selection is Voltage with Supply, this set point
represents the 100% point for the normalized input.
Faults:
When the voltage goes above this parameter, it will trigger the
Analog_1_OUT_OF_RANGE fault (flash code 0xB1, Can Index
0x2620).
If assigning the Throttle to Analog 1, the resulting fault will become
the Throttle Input fault (flash code 0x42, CAN Index 0x2210).
If assigning the Brake to Analog 1, the resulting fault will become
the Brake Input fault (ash code 0x44) if Brake_Source = 1.

%
Voltage on a 0-100 percentage basis, pin 8.
The percentage of the voltage at pin 8 is based upon the High and
Low settings, i.e., the percent of:
((analog_input_volts_2) – (analog_input_2_low)) /
((analog_input_2_high) – (analog_input_2_low))
