Configuring analog inputs
An analog input is a varying voltage, current, or resistance signal that
can be converted to units of measurement, such as temperature, pressure,
and humidity.
To set up an analog input:
1. In the Active Device View, click the Inputs tab. The status informa-
tion for the inputs appears.
2. Click the Configuration button. The Configuration dialog box appears
with the Inputs tab displayed (Figure 18 on page 22).
3. In the Name list, click the input you want to configure. The configura-
tion information for that input appears in the tab.
You can also select the input by clicking the input number in the
Input list. The Name and Input lists are linked so that input name
and input number are always displayed together.
4. If you want to change the input name, highlight the text and type a
new name.
Use a descriptive name because it appears in custom displays and
programs.
5. Under Type, click the Analog option. The analog input configuration
information appears (Figure 20 on page 25).
