17. ALARMS ON ANALOG INPUTS

Voltage or current can be set for each of the 2 analog inputs in the "Analog Input Setup" section.
Input acquisition time is 50ms. Seneca recommends you ALWAYS enable analog input filter
("read filter on" item) to obtain the most stable reading not influenced by external disturbances.
You can set input voltage mode with range from 0 to 30V.
Inputs in current mode have a range from 0 to 20 mA.
You can also scale analog readings in technical units.
4 different alarms can be set for each input:
Alarm on HIGH value
Alarm on LOW value
Alarm on MAXIMUM value
Alarm on MINIMUM value

Analog input filter

A filter can be set for analog inputs. This filter is mobile mean type on 20 samples. This type of
filter lets you stabilise the reading even with highly disturbed signals.
