Greetings;
We have a flow meter measuring our Process Water flow, and it sends a 4-20 mA signal to a SLC 5/05 through a 1746-NI8. The head engineer wanted to connect a data logger to it to gather some readings, so I simply wrote a move that passed from the Input signal on the NI8 to an Output on a 1746-NO4I. Should be easy-peazy, right?
Of course not. While I have ~9.5 mA signal coming into the NI8, I have ~5.5 mA signal coming from the NO4I. From what I can see, everything is configured correctly. Tried moving the output, but no-go - more of the same. Anyone have any ideas as to where I should be starting when I get back in tomorrow morning?
Any ideas are greatly appreciated! Thank you much for your time!
