Combics Analog Interface Extension YDA01C-20mA (Option A4)
- Function of the Extension:
The customer now has the option of accurately trimming a 4–20 mA current interface. By entering the signals in the 4 or 20 mA menu, the
output signals for the current interface can be changed.
If, for example, only 3.96 mA is actually measured for the 4mA output signal, by entering this value the output signal is trimmed to exactly
4.00 mA. Once this value has been entered, exactly 4.00 mA is output by the current interface.
- Hardware Requirements:
The data output is configured via solder links for the mode: 0–24 mA.

- Special Features:
The trim values can be deleted by entering „0" in the menu. All other entries, such as „0." or „0.0" will be rejected as impermissible.
If no trimming parameters are entered, the interface operates as configured on the hardware, i.e. if the hardware is configured as 0–24mA,
the minimum value is output as 0 mA and the maximum value is output as 24 mA. The output is only set to 4–20 mA by entering at least
one trimming value.
If the menu item „4 mA signal:" or „20 mA signal:" is enabled, the untrimmed current values are output, although a trimming value may
already be displayed. The trimmed signal is only displayed after a signal is entered, e.g.: The menu item is enabled and „3.98" is displayed.
The current interface now outputs „3.98 mA". After again entering „3.98" the interface outputs exactly „4.00 mA".
The trimmed 4mA signal is displayed on exiting the menu items.
- Attention:
During the switch-on procedure for the Combics terminal the current interface may briefly output 24 mA.
Please note that the customer may only connect analog interfaces which can withstand a maximum current of 24 mA to the Combics cur-
rent interface.
Selected entry of the 4mA signal
Entry of signal: e.g. 3.96 mA 4 mA is output at the current interface, so that the multimeter
can now be used to measure the current to be input.
Selected entry of the 20mA signal Entry of signal: e.g. 19.96 mA.
flashing cursor 20 mA is output at the current interface.
Selected entry of the 4mA signal
Entry of signal: e.g. 3.96 mA 4 mA is output at the current interface.
Selected entry of the 20mA signal
Entry of signal: e.g. 19.96 mA 20 mA is output at the current interface.
