LINEAR 
SQROOT 
TRANSMITTER 3 CHARACTERIZATION—This 
selection lets you instruct the controller to 
characterize a linear input to represent a non-linear 
one. 
 ATTENTION   Prompt only appears when a linear 
actuation is selected at prompt IN3 TYPE. 
FOR EXAMPLE: 
If Input 3 is a 4 to 20 mA signal, but the signal 
represents a type K thermocouple, then select K TC 
H and the controller will characterize the 4 to 20 mA 
signal so that it is treated as a type K thermocouple 
input (high range). 
Parameter definitions are the same as in IN3 TYPE. 
IN3 HIGH 
–999. To 9999. Floating 
(in engineering units) 
INPUT 3 HIGH RANGE VALUE—This value in 
engineering units is displayed for all inputs but can 
only be changed for inputs configured for linear or 
square root transmitter characterization. 
See the example in IN1 HI. 
IN3 LOW 
–999. To 9999. Floating 
(in engineering units) 
INPUT 3 LOW RANGE VALUE—This value in 
engineering units is displayed for all inputs but can 
only be changed for inputs configured for linear or 
square root transmitter characterization. 
See the example in IN1 HI 
RATIO 3 
–20.00 to 20.00 
Floats to 3 decimal places 
RATIO ON INPUT 3—Select the Ratio value you 
want on Input 3. 
BIAS IN3 
–999. to 9999. 
(in engineering units) 
BIAS ON INPUT 3—Bias is used to compensate the 
input for drift of an input value due to deterioration of 
a sensor, or some other cause. Select the bias value 
you want on Input 3.  
Final Input 3 Value = Input 3 * Ratio 3 + Bias 3 
FILTER 3 
0 to 120 seconds 
No filter = 0 
FILTER FOR INPUT 3—A software digital filter is 
provided for Input 3 to smooth the input signal. You 
can configure the first order lag time constant from 1 
to 120 seconds. If you do not want filtering, enter 0.
