Description

AO type

0-1mA

±1mA

0-20mA

4-20mA

The analog output type. When connected

to the meter, shows the actual AO type

received from the device. When working

off-line, select the analog output option

corresponding to your analog module.

Output parameter

See Appendix B

Selects the measured parameter to be

transmitted through the analog output

channel.

Zero scale

Defines the low engineering scale (in

primary units) for the analog output

corresponding to a lowest (zero) output

current (0 or 4 mA)

Full scale

Defines the high engineering scale (in

primary units) for the analog output

corresponding to a highest output current

(1 or 20 mA)

When you select an output parameter for the analog output channel,
the default engineering scales are set automatically. They correspond
to the maximum available scales. If the parameter actually covers a
lower range, you can change the scales to provide a better resolution
on an analog output.

Scaling Non-Directional Analog Outputs

For non-directional analog outputs with a 0-1mA, 0-20mA or 4-20mA
current option, you can change both zero and full engineering scales
for any parameter. The engineering scale need not be symmetrical.

Scaling Directional Power Factor

The engineering scale for the signed power factor emulates analog
power factor meters.

The power factor scale is -0 to +0 and is symmetrical with regard to

1.000 (-1.000

+1.000). The negative power factor is scaled as

-1.000 minus the measured value, and non-negative power factor is
scaled as +1.000 minus the measured value. To define the entire
power factor range from -0 to +0, the default scales are specified as -
0.000 to 0.000.

Scaling ±1mA Analog Outputs

Programming engineering scales for directional ±1mA analog outputs
depends on whether the output parameter represents unsigned (as
volts and amps) or signed (as powers and power factor) values.

For an unsigned output value, you can change both zero and full
engineering scales.

For a signed (directional) value, you should only provide the
engineering scale for the +1 mA output current.

The engineering scale for the 0 mA output current is always equal to
zero for all values except the signed power factor, for which it is set to
1.000 (see

Scaling Directional Power Factor

above).

The meter does not allow access to the low scale setting if the
parameter is directional. Whenever the sign of the output parameter is
