Inputs that are on-board the FLEX main unit are labelled
“On-Board AI-1” and “On-Board UI-1 to 3,” for Analog
Input (AI) and Universal Inputs (UI) respectively. Note, if
FLEX is using a factory-installed pressure transducer, then
the input “On-Board AI-1” is not available, as it is occupied
by the on-board sensor snapped to the back of the unit.
Selectthedesiredinputtobecongured.Thendenethe
type of signal output from the sensor, milliamps (mA), DC
voltage (VDC), or contact (Digital). Selecting “None” means
the input is not used, and FLEX will not attempt to read a
transient input signal from that input.
Choose the Sensor Type being used. Pre-selections are
available for Pressure, Temperature, Humidity, and Air
Changes per Hour (ACH). A User Dened selection can
also be chosen if the sensor is not one of the ones on the
pre-selected list.
When the Sensor Type is chosen, the input signal can
then be scaled using Low and High signal values that
match the full-scale range of the applicable sensor. In the
example below, these are “mA Low” and “mA High.” This
scaling of the input allows the sensor’s output signal to be
scaled to the desired reading on the Home screen. Select
theEngineeringUnits“EngUnits”anddenethefull-scale
range of the sensor in the appropriate units of measure.
When “Digital” is chosen for Input Type, DOOR can be
selected as an option. This applies to a door contact.
Selecting Normal Polarity means switch open equals door
open, and switch closed means door closed. Selecting
Reverse Polarity means switch open equals door closed,
and switch closed means door open. Choose the Polarity
that generates the desired results from the door switch
being used.
