- nightmare.bk - 12-05-2014 Hi all, I have a question: I have a device which has output signal 0-5V: 0V ~ OFF status, 5V ~ ON status. I donââ¬â¢t want to a relay to change this analog signal to digital signal. Now Iââ¬â¢m using CP9000-LOG to read analog input 0-5V ~ 0-256. Flag status ~ ON/OFF status. And I will always check this value to update status of device. Response CheckStatus: If value analog input > 200 then Do Set Flag Else Do Clear Flag Do CheckStatus after 2s using Timer Itââ¬â¢s ok. But I have a trouble: I donââ¬â¢t know how I can trigger this response when system startup (Analog Inputs donââ¬â¢t have On Off Response). When system startup, this response can not automatically work. So that, I can not read status of device. Can you suggest for me about this problem? And have other way to change this analog signal to digital signal (not use relay) and always update status of device? Thanks! - slychiu - 12-05-2014 If you want to connect an analog voltage to an Input and want to detect if the logic is 1 or 0 without going through a relay, I suggest you program the zone type as Digiital N/C. Comfort analog input range is actually 0 to 3V. 5V input will be clamped to 3V Set the zone shunt as NO EOL resistor with the shunt closer to the terminal block, so that the built in series resistor will limit the voltage to 3v if the voltage is close to 0 v, it will be detected as Off If the voltage is above 1.5 V it will be detected as On Thus you can use the on and off response - nightmare.bk - 12-05-2014 Thanks for your help
