Eng. Units

Defines the native units of the transducer. Your
choice controls the list of possible selections
available in the Output Data Units parameter. It
also affects other module parameters.

Fault Low

The minimum, or most negative, expected DC bias
voltage from the transducer.

Volts

Note: A voltage reading outside this
range constitutes a transducer fault.

Fault High

The maximum expected DC bias voltage from the
transducer.

DC Bias Time Constant

The time constant used for exponential averaging
(low pass filtering) of the transducer DC bias
measurement. The corner frequency for the low pass
filter is 1 / (2

π

x DC Bias Time Constant). The

greater the value entered, the longer the settling
time of the measured value to a change in the input
signal. See example table below.
