Inputs/Outputs
If the sensor's output range does not match your meter's hardware limits, you must calculate the
full scale and/or zero scale values by analyzing the system.
For more information on the Analog Input module, see ION Reference, available on
www.usa.siemens.com/pds.

Configuring option module analog inputs using ION Setup

You can configure analog inputs using ION Setup.
Analog inputs are available on the optional I/O modules.
Calculate your zero scale and full scale values based on the analog source and the input range of
your meter.
Make sure that the analog input port that you want to use is properly configured and connected to
a valid external analog signal source.
1. Start ION Setup.
2. Open the Setup Assistant for your meter.
3. Click Expansion Modules > Option I/O Modules and select the module tab that
corresponds to the option module with the analog input you want to configure.
4. Select the analog input channel and click Edit. Enter the meter password if prompted. The
setup screen for that analog input is displayed.
5. Configure the analog input by selecting the parameter and clicking Edit.

Analog outputs

Analog output applications

You can use an analog output to send a signal to an external analog input, for example an analog-
controlled valve, to modify a water pipe's valve position to change the flow rate.
For analog output operation, your meter takes an input value and scales it to the appropriate
signal value to send out the physical analog output port.
Your meter's analog I/O option modules can output either low voltage or current using standard
analog transducers such as 4–20 mA current transducers.
