6-4 Analog Input Functional Block
Measurement Type, Measurement Current, and Input
Gain values.
Filter Sets the input noise filtering on the device to reject
either 50 Hz or 60 Hz noise.
Translation Enabled Determines whether the translation table, set up in
the Translation tab, will be used. If this option is
disabled, the untranslated, or raw, values will be
used as read from the transducer.
Device Offset The value set in this field is added to the sensed
reading to account for device-to-device transducer
variations. The units match the units being sent on
the network variable. This offset is applied after the
translation.
For example, if a 100
Ω
RTD measures 0.12º C at the
ice-point, the offset should be –0.12.
Sample Interval Controls the rate that the analog input samples the
input hardware and updates its output network
variable. This field may be set to 500 ms, 1 sec, 2 sec,
4 sec, 8 sec, 16 sec, or 32 sec.
Location The location string for this analog input. This
property can be used to document the associated
input’s location within the plant so it can be easily
found. This field may contain up to 30 characters.
This value is separate from the device’s location
string.
