Uncertain if in Manual mode—The status of the
Output is set to Uncertain when the mode is set to
Manual.
Note
1. The instrument must be in Out of
Service mode to set the status option.
2. The AI block only supports the

failure. Unsupported options are not
grayed out; they appear on the screen
in the same manner as supported
options.
Filtering
The filtering feature changes the response time of the
device to smooth variations in output readings caused
by rapid changes in input. You can adjust the filter
time constant (in seconds) using the PV_FTIME [18]

Signal Conversion
You can set the signal conversion type with the
Linearization Type (L_TYPE [16]) parameter. You can
view the converted signal (in percent of XD_SCALE
[10]) through the FIELD_VAL [19] parameter.
100 X (Channel Value) − EU *@0%
FIELD_VAL =
(EU *@100% − EU *@0%)
You can choose from direct, indirect, or indirect
square root signal conversion with the L_TYPE [16]
parameter.
Direct
Direct signal conversion allows the signal to pass
through the accessed channel input value (or the
simulated value when simulation is enabled).
