1.5. Line Monitoring Thresholds

The module determines the contact state and line fault status by comparing the input voltage level to
four user programmed thresholds and two fixed (minimum and maximum) thresholds. Hysteresis is
provided on the thresholds by up-scale and downscale values, corresponding to the thresholds for
increasing and decreasing values respectively.

The channel state value returned is dependent on the previous state value. If the input level is

increasing then the lower state value will be returned. If the input level is decreasing the higher state
value will be returned.
