how to program Analog 4-20mA sensor in CLICK Software

Hi Guys,


How is Analog 4-20mA Level sensor Programmed in CLICK software of Automation Direct?


Which Instruction set.

It's programmed in Click software setup page. You configure each channel of the analog card. Scaling, variables, etc. are all done in config.

You are right bro.


Please, is this correct?

1. For instance, in RSLogix500, we have Analog Address as say I:0.0 storing Float data in register say F8:0,
In CLICK Software is it perfect to say Analog Address as AD1I (for first current channel)storing data in DF1


2. Do they have a Simulator for this CLICK Software


3. What software is used for HMIs compartible with CLICK Ethernet Analog PLCs?

The above post will show you how to address the analog card on the Click PLC.
Here is a link for the entire series on the Click PLC.

The software does not have a simulator.

There are several HMI's that are compatible. Since the click uses Modbus RTU and TCP you can use AdvancedHMI.

You can also use AD HMI - C-More or C-More Micro

Hope this helps you out.

The CMore EA7 family (obsolete) does NOT include a tag-based comms driver for the CLICK.
You would have to go full-strength modbus addressing in the EA7.
The Tag Database (Address Picker) can be coerced to display the Modbus register/coil addresses.

I like Red Lion HMI for use with the Click (or any other PLC). Their Modbus driver handles word swapping and byte swapping nicely and can deal with all manner of protocol limitations and variations.
