8.2 Configuring analog outputs with Insight
Using the Insight PC software, you can configure the measurement parameter sent on each
analog output, the scaling of the parameter, clipping and error limits, and the error output
level. In addition to configuration, you can also carry out an output test where the output is
forced to a fixed level so it can be verified with a multimeter. Both output channels have the
same configuration options.
The analog output configuration view in Insight also shows the status and output mode of the
analog output channel: see Figure 58 (page 109).
1. Connect to Insight (see Connecting to Insight PC software (page 103)).
2. Select > Configure Device, and then one of the 2 analog outputs.
3. Select the measurement parameter that is sent on the output channel you are configuring,
set the scaling for the output, and define the output level that indicates an error.
4. Define the clipping and error limits.
5. Store the selections with Save and exit with Close.
6. Repeat the configuration for each output (analog outputs 1, 2, and 3) as required.
7. If you want to test the output, see the instructions in Analog output level test (page 111).
8.3
Configuring analog outputs with local display
interface
Using the local display interface of the transmitter, you can configure the measurement
parameter sent on each analog output, the scaling of the parameter, and the error output level.
In addition to configuration, you can also carry out an output test where the output is forced to
a fixed level so it can be verified with a multimeter. Both output channels have the same
configuration options.
To view the status of the outputs, select Menu > Status > Output status.
Note that clipping and error limit configuration for the analog outputs can only be
carried out with Insight PC software.
1. Select Menu > Settings > Analog outputs.
2. Select the measurement parameter that is sent on the output channel you are configuring,
set the scaling for the output, and define the output level that indicates an error.
3. Repeat the configuration for each output as required.
4. If you want to test the output, see the instructions in Analog output level test (page 111).
