Configure the following parameters:
1. Label Text - Enter descriptive text that signifies the use of the input. This text appears next to the
threshold status and associated alarm and pre-alarm status in BESTlogicPlus Programmable Logic
and in the event log if any of the input thresholds are configured as an Alarm or Pre-Alarm.
2. Hysteresis (%) - Enter a value for the desired hysteresis for threshold detection. This will help prevent
intermittent detection of thresholds.
3. RTD Type - Select 100 Ohm Platinum or 10 Ohm Copper to match the RTD that is driving the input.
4. Arming Delay - The Arming Delay is the wait time after engine startup, before input monitoring begins.
Set the arming delay to zero if constant monitoring desired, even when the engine is not running.
Non-zero values direct the input to be monitored after the programmed time has elapsed after engine
startup.
5. Out-of-Range Alarm Type - An out-of-range condition occurs when the DGC-2020 detects that the
input is outside of the normal range of what is detected for the RTD type. Primarily this provides
indication of an open or shorted RTD circuit. If Alarm or Pre-Alarm is selected, annunciation will
occur. If Status Only is selected, the status is available to BESTlogicPlus Programmable Logic but
annunciation will not occur.
6. Threshold 1 and Threshold 2 - These settings are identical to those for the Remote Analog Inputs.
Refer to the setup instructions in the paragraphs titled Configuring Remote Analog Inputs on the
AEM-2020 to configure these thresholds.
Configuring Remote Thermocouple Inputs on the AEM-2020
Many settings for the Remote Thermocouple Inputs are similar to the settings for Remote Analog Inputs.
