I am installing a 4-20ma distance sensor on a piece of equipment that has a remote I/O cabinet that uses devicenet Point I/O cards. The analog input card is a 1734-IE2C.
The distance sensor will be used to measure level in a hopper so in the end I'm looking for a 0-100% value.
The PLC is a controllogix 1756-L61.
The bit value is 16bit. I found a document that says 4ma = 3277 and 20ma = 16383.
I don't have the DeviceNet file (.dnt) available for this project so I can't open the configuration up in RSNetWorx. Do the inputs need to be configured or can they only be setup one way?
Thank-You!
