5.7. SENSORS
Analog: current (4-20 mA) or voltage (0-20 V) sensors
connected to analog inputs, SDI12 units or AgroBee or
AgroBee-L modules. There can be a total of 40.
Meters: pulse-emitting sensors (irrigation, fertilizer or

5.7.1 Digital sensors
A digital sensor acts by opening and closing a contact.
Example: pressure gages, thermostats, tank levels,
open door detector, etc. They are identified on the
base of the Agrónic as D1 to D6.
DIGITAL SENSOR PARAMETERS
Sensor: 01
Input No.: 00003
Status, normally open: yes
Text: abcdefghi
Sensor (00 ... 20): digital sensor number to be config-
ured.
Input No.: digital input where the sensor is connected.
See section 6 ‘Input and output coding’.
Status, normally open (Yes ... No):
• yes: the sensor marks ‘ 1 ’ when there is continuity
between CD and the corresponding input.
• No: the sensor marks ‘ 1 ’ when there is no continui-
ty between CD and the corresponding input.
Text (0 ... 9 characters): sensor identification text.
