Walkerok Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 I know absolutely nothing about the 4-20 regulator you have so please take this comment keeping this in mind. If your 4-20 device does not provide its own power in the 4-20ma loop then your connections are wrong. You would have to connect the + of your 4-20 to +24VDC and the - of your device to the analog input of the PLC. If the device is self powered then your connections should be correct. Check your hardware setup in your program and that you are looking at the correct MI (or wherever you are storing the analog input data) Keith Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
