Analog Input Setup
The optional Analog Input Setup function assigns an active analog input to a measurement
channel/path. The flow meter provides four DC current input ports for single channel and
Dual Channel units. The DC current input ranges from a zero level of 4mA to a full scale of
20mA. The [Analog Inp Setup] menu cell allows you to enable this port and then span it to
any desired scaling.
For example, when using the analog input viscosity function the numeric variables might be
spanned as follows: 4mA=1 (water) and 20mA=100 (more viscous liquid). This spanning
configuration allows the flow meter to use this constant numerical change to improve
calibration in real time.
The various flow meter models allow you to associate the analog input to active system
variables such as specific gravity, viscosity and others (see table below).
Note
Refer to Appendix A (Page 181) or I/O Module markings for the locations of these inputs and
wiring procedures.

I/O Data Control
The flow meter recognizes the first analog input variable that is assigned to any given
parameter and ignores any subsequent input with the same assignment. For example, if Iin1
and Iin2 are both assigned to represent pressure (PSIA), the flow meter will only use the
pressure input from Iin1.
