Analogue Output


What do I use the analog output for?

Measuring transducer (0../4..20 mA)

A selected measured value can be transmitted via the analog output, for example, to the building management system or to another device with an analog 0..20 / 4..20 mA input.

How do I set the analog output?

Step 1: Make settings via the device overview

To open the configuration of an analog output

  • Click on the analog output in the device overview.

  • Activate the analog output via the slider.

The configuration card of the analog output is displayed in the configuration area only after activation.

Step 2: Configure the analog output

The following parameters are available

  • Segment
    Select the component from which the reference value originates:

Basic device
Module 1
Module 2

  • Measure group
    Select the measurement group of the reference value.

  • Measure value
    Select the type of the measured value.

  • Phase / Channel
    Select the channel whose measured value is to be used.

  • Kind of measure value
    Select the type of measured value (momentary, minimum, maximum, average).

  • Output signal
    Specify the range of the output signal: 0 … 20 mA or 4 … 20 mA

  • Start value
    Enter a measured value start value for the standard signal (0 or 4 mA).

  • End value
    Enter a measured value end value for the standard signal (20 mA).

EXAMPLE: Selection of start and end value:

In this example, the active power in the range of 500..1000 W scales to the standard signal of 4...20 mA.

  • Measured value: Active power

  • Output signal: 4 ... 20 mA

  • Start value: 500 W

  • End value: 1000 W

If the active power is 500 W, 4 mA are output at the analog output,
while an active power of 1000 W produces an analog output of 20 mA.
