Tom P Posted March 23, 2023 Report Share Posted March 23, 2023 I am attempting to hook up a ProSense pressure transmitter to a V200-18-E3XB. When I hook it up like the two drawings show, all I get is a value of 1730. I can't see what I am doing wrong! prosense_ptd25_installation.pdf UNITRONICS V200-18-E3XB.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is important because the jumpers default to voltage (0-10V input). If you are using current (0-20mA or 4-20mA) you must set the jumpers properly. Also, be sure you have a good power supply (must be 24V even though the PLC itself can run on 12-24V) and confirm your settings in the PLC program Hardware Configuration. 1 hour ago, Tom P said: all I get is a value of 1730 Do you have your hardware config set to 12-bit or 14-bit?

Tom P Posted March 23, 2023 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2023 PTD25-20-0100WCH I found out that the sensor that I am trying to hook up is for 4-20mA output. The programmer is going to have to re-vamp the program for the 4-20mA signal. Thank you for your answers. I think I found the problem and know what has to be done. Thank you again.

If it takes him more than 2 minutes, get another programmer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom P Posted March 24, 2023 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2023 Thanks for the help guys. I have this one figured out. The programmer is off sick for the next few days, so when he gets back, it will be all better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
