Rosemount 5300 Series
CONFIGURE THE AI
BLOCK
A minimum of four parameters are required to configure the AI Block. The
parameters are described below with example configurations shown at the
end of this section.
CHANNEL
Select the channel that corresponds to the desired sensor measurement. The
Rosemount 5300 measures Level (channel 1), Distance (channel 2), Level
Rate (channel 3), Signal Strength (channel 4), Volume (channel 5), Internal
Temperature (channel 6), Upper Product Volume (channel 7), Lower Product
Volume (channel 8), Interface Distance (channel 9), Upper Product Thickness
(channel 10), Interface Level (channel 11), Interface Level Rate (channel 12),
Interface Signal Strength (channel 13), Signal Quality (channel 14),
Surface/Noise Margin (channel 15), and Vapor DC (channel 16).
L_TYPE
The L_TYPE parameter defines the relationship of the transmitter
measurement (Level, Distance, Level Rate, Signal Strength, Volume, and
Average Temperature) to the desired output of the AI Block. The relationship
can be direct or indirect root.
Direct
Select direct when the desired output will be the same as the transmitter
measurement (Level, Distance, Level Rate, Signal Strength, Volume, and
Internal Temperature).
Indirect
Select indirect when the desired output is a calculated measurement
based on the transmitter measurement (Level, Distance, Level Rate,
Signal Strength, Volume, and Internal Temperature). The relationship
between the transmitter measurement and the calculated measurement
will be linear.
