I am generaly using micrologix or SLC processors with analog input cards, and using SCP to scale the card for my sensors.
I have always used 0-16383 for scaling (scaled for PID). I have seen other engineers use 3120 to 15600 for the same analog card (there loic being that 0 is equal to 0 mA and 16383 is equal to 21 mA) I am having trouble finding documentation in the AB manuals to clear this up for me. how do you determine what the scale should be for the module? (say a 1762 if2of2 or a 1769 if4)
