H3 Analog Inputs
Note: To convert terminal A1 to a 4-20 mA signal, connect a 250 Ohm precision resistor (1/4 Watt or greater) between A1 and
AC. Then program H3-02 = 231.3% and H3-03 = -25.0%.

H3-02 Terminal A1 Gain Setting
Setting Range:
0.0 ~ 1000.0%
Factory Default: 100.0%
Refer to parameter H3-02 in Appendix A for description details.

H3-03 Terminal A1 Bias Setting
Setting Range:
-100.0% ~ +100.0%
Factory Default: 0.0%
In order to have the iQpump drive properly interpret an analog input, it may be necessary to apply a gain and / or a bias to the signal. The
analog inputs have a resolution of 10 bits (1024 steps). Using the factory default settings for the analog input’s gain and bias, the 0-10
Vdc or 4-20 mA signal at the analog input will yield a 0-100% speed command span.

Figure 72. Output Frequency as Commanded Via Analog Input
If a different span of analog input signal is desirable, it will be necessary to adjust the gain, the bias, or both to allow the analog input
level to generate the desired frequency command. Adjustment of the gain setting will change the speed command that is equivalent to the
maximum analog input (10 Vdc or 20 mA). If, for instance, the gain is increased to 200%, then 10 Vdc or 20 mA will be equivalent to a
200% speed command and 5 Vac or 12 mA will be equivalent to a 100% Speed Command. Since the iQpump drive output is limited by
the maximum frequency parameter (E1-04), 0-5 Vdc or 4-12 mA will now be equivalent to 0-100% speed command span.
