Remote Setpoint (continued)
Example: Temperature Sensor Wired to Terminal X60
LC_OptgMo
de = IntLC X62
Ext Inp X62 U/I = 4..20 mA
MeasureRangePtNi = 302 °F
Desired remote setpoint range = 180-270 °F
A 4-20 mA signal on terminal X62 scales the setpoint from 32-302 °F. Parameters “Ext
MinSetpoint” and “Ext MaxSetpoint” need to be utilized to get the appropriate setpoint range.

With these parameters set, the f
ollowing input signals will scale the setpoint accordingly:
4 – 12.8 mA = 180 °F (limited by “Ext MinSetpoint”)
12.8 – 18.1 mA = 180 - 270 °F
18.1 - 20 mA = 270 °F (limited by “Ext MaxSetpoint”)
