The overflow, underflow and low voltage diagnostic alarm information will be reported in the analog data values even if
the alarms are disabled in the module configuration.
For resistance ranges underflow detection is never enabled.
When wire break alarm is disabled and an open wire condition exists in the sensor wiring, the module may report ran-
The EM RTD analog expansion module measures the value of resistance connected to the
module inputs. The measurement type can be selected as either "Resistor" or "Thermal
resistor".
● "Resistor": The nominal range full scale value will be decimal 27648.
● "Thermal resistor": The value will be reported in degrees multiplied by ten (for example,
25.3 degrees will be reported as decimal 253).
The EM RTD module supports measurements with 2-wire, 3-wire and 4-wire connections to
the sensor resistor.
