Parameter

Extraction of Square Root 
Enable
Extraction of Square Root 
Low-cut Point
• For analog inputs, the Extraction of Square Root parameter is provided for 
inputs so that differential pressure-type flow meter signals can be directly 
input. 
• The default setting for the Extraction of Square Root parameter is OFF. The 
Extraction of Square Root Enable parameter must be set to ON in order to use 
this function. 
• If the PV input (i.e., the input before extracting the square root) is higher than 
0.0% and lower than the low cut point set in the Extraction of Square Root 
Low-Cut Point parameter, the results of extracting the square root will be 0.0%. 
If the PV input is lower than 0.0% or higher than 100.0%, extraction of the 
square root will not be executed, so the result will be equal to the PV input. 
The low-cut point is set as normalized data for each input, with 0.0 as the 
lower limit and 100.0 as the upper limit for the input setting range.
