Analog Output

The device has analog outputs. You can either directly control the voltage output (AOUT#.VALUEU) or have it controlled via the action table (see Configuring Actions). Which value the analog output is driven by is selected by the AOUT#.SOURCE keyword.

Element Image Description Parameter
Analog Source Configuration – Source Select the source for the Analog Output Configuration.
  1. User. A fixed value set by the user
  2. Actions. Value is determined from the Actions (see Configuring Actions)
  3. FieldbusClosed A Fieldbus is an industrial network system for real-time distributed control (e.g. CAN or Profibus). It is a way of connecting instruments in a plant design. Value is driven by the fieldbus
 AOUT#.SOURCE
Analog Source Configuration – User Value Enter the Analog Output value. When AOUT#.SOURCE = 0 the analog output signal is determined by the user. AOUT#.VALUEU
Low Pass Filter Configuration – Corner Frequency Enables a software-based low pass filter of the analog output value. 0 Hz is a pass-through or "disable" of this feature. AOUT#.CUTOFF
Offset Configuration – Offset Sets an offset value for the Analog Output. The range is -10 to +10. AOUT#.OFFSET
Analog Output Value   Displays the voltage that this analog output generates. AOUT#.VALUE
