CONFIGURE THE AI
BLOCK
A minimum of four parameters are required to configure the AI Block. The
parameters are described below with example configurations shown at the
end of this section.

CHANNEL

Select the channel that corresponds to the desired sensor measurement. The
Rosemount 5600 measures Level (channel 1), Distance (channel 2), Level
Rate (channel 3), Signal Strength (channel 4), Volume (channel 5), and
Average Temperature (channel 6).

L_TYPE

The L_TYPE parameter defines the relationship of the transmitter
measurement (Level, Distance, Level Rate, Signal Strength, Volume, and
Average Temperature) to the desired output of the AI Block. The relationship
can be direct or indirect root.

Direct

Select direct when the desired output will be the same as the transmitter
measurement (Level, Distance, Level Rate, Signal Strength, Volume, and
Average Temperature).
Indirect
Select indirect when the desired output is a calculated measurement
based on the transmitter measurement (Level, Distance, Level Rate,
Signal Strength, Volume, and Average Temperature). The relationship
between the transmitter measurement and the calculated measurement
will be linear.

Indirect Square Root

Select indirect square root when the desired output is an inferred
measurement based on the transmitter measurement and the relationship
between the sensor measurement and the inferred measurement is
square root (e.g. level).
