This command offers an individual scalable input. The following linear equation is used for the scaling.

Means AIN command would look like this: AIN:I 20 16 2000 C or AIN:I 1250 1000 2000 C (20/16 = 1.25)
Changing the polarity/direction of the signal is realized by negating one of the gain factors.
Specific characteristic here:
-> For the sensor a unipolar signal is used to map a bipolar value range. At the scaling function this is simu-
lated by virtual doubling up the available signal range. Additionally the offset is set to the middle of the used
signal range.

If the settings are unknown it is recommended to use the standard settings for the sensor (0...10V or 4...
20mA). The displayed feedback value X represents the zero position (C). Now generate a full control with
100% feed forward in OL mode and then the X value represents the used signal range (B). For being sure re-
peat the last process in negative way (SIGNAL:U = 2S-). If higher this value should be taken for B. At last dou-
ble up the A value. For this adjustment procedure the remote control mode of the module can be used which
can be handled easily by the WPC-300 program.
