Basic Function Principles
The analog input terminals
- KL3444 and KL3448 process signals in the range between 0 and 20 mA
- KL3454 and KL3458 process signals in the range between 4 and 20 mA
with a resolution of 12 bits (4095 steps). They can supply the sensors from voltage fed in via the power contacts. The power contacts can optionally be supplied via the standard supply or via a power feed terminal with electrical isolation.
Process data output format
In the delivery state the process data are shown in two's complement form (integer -1 corresponds to 0xFFFF). Other presentation types can be selected via the feature register R32 (e.g. signed amount representation, Siemens output format).
Measured value | Input data | ||
|---|---|---|---|
KL3444, KL3448 | KL3454, KL3458 | decimal | hexadecimal |
0 mA | 4 mA | 0 | 0x0000 |
10 mA | 12 mA | 16383 | 0x3FFF |
20 mA | 20 mA | 32767 | 0x7FFF |
Process data equations
The process data that are transferred to the Bus Coupler are calculated using the following equations:
Neither user nor manufacturer scaling is active
Ya = (Ba + XADC) x Aa | (1.0) |
Yout = Ya |
|
Manufacturer scaling active (default setting)
Y1 = Bh + Ah x Ya | (1.1) |
Yout = Y1 |
|
User scaling active
Y2 = Bw + Aw x Ya | (1.2) |
Yout = Y2 |
|
Manufacturer and user scaling active
Y1 = Bh + Ah x Ya | (1.3) |
Y2 = Bw + Aw x Y1 | (1.4) |
Yout = Y2 |
|
Key
XADC: | Output values of the A/D converter |
|
Yout: | Process data to PLC |
|
Ba, Aa: | Manufacturer gain and offset compensation | |
Bh, Ah: | Manufacturer scaling | |
Bw, Aw: | User scaling |
The equations of the straight line are enabled via register R32.
