* Set switch A53 = U, parameters 612 and 613 are hidden when A53 = U.
** Set switch A53 = I, parameters 610 and 611 are hidden when A53 = I
*** Set to use AI54, set to Analog Input 54, configure parameters 620/1 or 622/3, 642, 625
and 62.
Control from external PLC/BMS through Analog Input
The controller can be configured to accept either the process variable (e.g. actual
pressure) or setpoint from an external control source such as a PLC or BMS controller
through an analog input. The output from the external control device can be either a
voltage or current output signal. Be sure to set the analog input configuration switches
based on the type of output signal. When the process variable is supplied by the external
controller, the wiring connections are the same as used with the connections for speed
control from an external device through an analog input. When the setpoint or reference
is supplied to the controller from the external device both a transducer and the external
control device supplying the setpoint need to be connected to the controller. Refer to the
wiring diagram below. The parameter settings for this configuration are shown below.
