Analog Channel Configuration (Ch001, Ch101 to Ch222)
After an analog input is connected to the Input Module and/or the front-panel connectors,
the channel must be configured for the type of input that is connected. Analog inputs are
channels Ch101 to Ch122 and Ch201 to Ch222. Use the procedure below and the tables
in this section to set up channels for specific input types.
Please read the considerations below to help with channel configuration:

configure the channel when it is set to ON for the first time. Push the cancel softkey
(

or (2) use the previous configuration for channels previously configured.

Each channel has independent channel options such as Channel Delay, Rate of
Change, Display As reading type, and thermocouple open-circuit detect that can be
accessed with the Channel Options softkey in the Edit Channel menu. The channel
options listed vary based on the on the input type.
•
After a channel is configured, it is important to verify the channel with the Verify
Channel softkey on the Channel Setup menu. This ensures that the channel was
configured properly before data is collected from a scan. See “Verify a Channel” on
page 3-14.
To configure an analog channel:

channel was previously configured, push
to cancel the configuration sequence
to use the last channel configuration.
