Filter
Filter Constant sets the level of digital filtering according to the
following chart.
Digital Filtering. The illustration above demonstrates the effect of
digital filtering (set with Filter Constant) on module
response to a temperature change.
It is recommended that the filter constant for the HE-XE103-10 be set
to a value of 7. This will minimize noise and jitter, improve effective
resolution, and provide adequate speed for most temperature monitor
and control applications.

Thermistor Linearization
Thermistors are measured using a half-bridge circuit that exhibits
variable resolution and the associated increased measurement
range.

Best resolution is at 25°C, 77°F. With a constant 0.1°C resolution
circuit, the measurement range would only extend from –26°C to
+76°C.
Linearization must be performed by the user in the ladder application
code, using 26 internal %R registers per channel. The example
below uses %R1-26 to linearize one channel - %AI1. Linearization
consists of the following example steps.
1)
Load the desired linearization coefficients into a table on
First Scan using a Move Constant Data block.

2)
Load %AI0001 into %R0001 as a Real.
3)
Perform the Real Math Expression
4)
%R3 = (((%R11*%R1+%R13)*%R1+%R15)*%R1+%R17)
5)
Perform the Real Math Expression %R5 =
(((%R3*%R1+%R19)*%R1+%R21)*%R1+%R23)*%R1+
%R25
6)
Load %R0005 result into another register such as
%R0007 to save the temperature value.
7)
Steps 2 though 5 can be on a single rung.
The expression rung may be copied, substituting %AI0002 and %R00011 for %AI0001 and
%R0007, and used to linearize the second channel. Contact Horner APG Technical Support
for an example file containing the above program.

All applicable codes and standards need to be followed in the installation of this
product.
Adhere to the following safety precautions whenever any type of connection is
made to the module:
Connect the safety (earth) ground on the power connector first before making
any other connections.
When connecting to electric circuits or pulse-initiating equipment, open their
related breakers.
Do not make connections to live power lines.
Make connections to the module first; then connect to the circuit to be monitored.
Route power wires in a safe manner in accordance with good practice and local
codes.
Wear proper personal protective equipment including safety glasses and
insulated gloves when making connections to power circuits.
Ensure hands, shoes, and floor are dry before making any connection to a power
line.
Make sure the unit is turned OFF before making connection to terminals.
Make sure all circuits are de-energized before making connections.
Before each use, inspect all cables for breaks or cracks in the insulation.
Replace immediately if defective.
