Analogue input configuration
This document describes how different analogue sensors need to be connected and configured.
Standard the TEC is equipped with 8 analogue input ports.

Every port can be configured to measure current or voltage i.e. 0..10V or 0..20mA.

Analogue inputs
By means of piggyback modules every input port can be converted to measure temperature
One module is designed to work with PT100 sensors. Another module is designed to work with a
Thermocouple from the J or K type.

Checking the data
The data can be configured in 2 ways, by means of the Terberg IDE or the Terberg RunWin
interface.
Current measuring is mostly applicable for pressure measuring devices. In this case an oil level
detector, which produces a current flow to represent the level. First the configuration using
RunWin is described.
Start up Run Win and select the main tree in the navigation bar in the lower
part of the screen. This will show the “quick reference list” screen. Select the
“Analogue In” screen. The “analogue inputs” screen appears.
An Oil level sensor is configured at analogue input port 5, address AI 0.4. The couple number is
the internal link through address in this case 56.

Depending on the type and construction of the sensor the negative input is connected to the
common 0V lead or to the negative output from the sensor. The positive output from the sensor
should always be connected to the positive input from the output port.

Depending on the type and

construction of the sensor two wires
are always connected to lead 1 and
2.
In case of a 2 wire connection the
dipswitch should be put in the 2
wire position.
In case of 3 wires the 3rd wire
should be connected to the 3rd lead
and the dipswitch should be put in
the 3 wire position. This is to
compensate for the internal
resistance of the wires and improve
precision.

wires are always connected. Make
sure the right polarity is
observed. There should be only
one pair of contacts used, as the
TK PB has (millivoltage)
compensation for one set of
contacts. More then one set of
connectionswill cause a deviation
inthe measurements.

Analogue inputs
Analog input advanced
Next to the TEC with its eight analog inputs there is the standard the CAN AIN analog input card
equipped with 8 input ports. Every port can be configured to measure current or voltage i.e.
0..10V or 4..20mA. Described are the V1.1 (green) and V2.0 (white) models.
CAN-AIN8 V1.1
By means of piggyback modules every input port can be converted to measure temperature or a
higher voltage.
Every one of the 8 input ports can be represented in the following schedule
By means of the selection jumper the following schedules represent every input depending on
the selected mode:

Analogue inputs
To measure temperature or a higher voltage there are piggyback modules. One module is
designed to work with PT100 sensors. Another module is designed to work with a Thermocouple
from the J or K type. Next to that there are 0 to 35V DC piggyback modules.
To measure 24.00V DC on a V1.1 A-in card there is a module with a range from 0 to 35.00V DC.

Configuring the data
interface.
Current measuring is mostly applicable for pressure measuring devices. In our example we want
to measure oil pressure. First the configuration using RunWin is described.
Start up Run Win and select tree in the navigation bar in the lower part
of the screen. This will show the “quick reference list” screen
The next step is to press the magnifying glass below “ I/O”, the “i/o &
can network overview” is shown.

Analogue inputs
Find the right “couple/pair” for Oil pressure. Select under “analogue input” the “selection” list.
Find in the “analogue inputs selection list” the oil pressure, by using the scroll buttons in the
navigation bar in the lower part of the screen.
The matching pair/couple is pair 109. Next step is coupling an analogue input to pair 109.
Use the “prev. page” in the navigation bar to get back to the “i/o & can network overview”
screen and select under “analogue input”, the “extended”.
Press the “Edit” button in the navigation bar to show the Entry panel. Enter the pair/couple, 109
in this case, in the chosen analogue input port. In this situation port 1 address 0 on module #1,
in short AI 0.0. For example module #2 port 5 would be AI 1.4

Analogue inputs
After entering the right couple/pair number, the scaling, unit type and input type is immediately
filled in by the system. If the sensor is connected correctly the value can be seen immediately.
Configuring data for analog inputs using the Terberg IDE
Select “show config” from the dropdown menu under

“Project”.
The “Config” screen will appear. Scroll through the “Analogue Input List” till “Oil Pressure(psi)”
is found in the column with “Display Name”. The corresponding “couple” num’ber is “109”. Click
on the tab with “Analog inputs”

Analogue inputs
Assign the oil pressure sensor to Module

1 at module port nr 1 at address AI 0.0
Enter the couple number “109” and the
internal name is shown directly in the
column “Name”
What is left is to update the SBC with the

newly created data.
Right click in the form and a dropdown
menuwill be displayed.
Select “Synchronize sheet SBCÅ>PC” to be able to update the SBC with the newly created data
from this sheet. In this way only relevant data will be sent to the SBC instead of also abusively
overwriting data in the SBC that has not been read from it, with zero’s from the PC. This could
be the case if one chooses “write sheet to SBC” or worse “write all sheets to SBC”.
The following screen appears :

It shows the differences in the data.
Here it shows the data we added; the
couple 109
At input port AI 0.0. We can also see the
data at that position the SBC. In this
case a zero.

Analogue inputs
Select the couple number and use the

radio button to tell the system to use
the data in the PC. In some cases it is
the SBC that is of importance. In that
case use the radio button to tell data in
the SBC has to be used.
Finally after all data and their directions have been set press the Synchronize button
After clicking on “Yes” the data will be synchronized.

On this screen analogue inputs are displayed per card, each card has 8 analogue channels.
There are pre defined analogue inputs configured in the SBC, these can be used for standard
analogue inputs. In that case the set points and alarms are automatically loaded. For a list with
the standard analogue values see “Analoog.bim” or screen (16) “Analogue Variables List”.
Each channel standard measures 0/4-20 mA or 0-10 Vdc analogue input signals. An analogue
input can be re scaled to convert to a real value. This option is only possible for mA or Vdc input
signals. For a scaling example see next page “Example for scaling of an analogue input”.
When other input signals are requested an add-on module can be used to connect standard
transducers. Add-on modules are available for PT500, PT100, thermocouple, 35Vdc input
signals. When these modules are used the scaling is predefined in the card.
Each input card has 8 analogue channels. The input number indication is AIxx.y where
‘xx’ indicates the configuration number and ‘y’ indicates the input number from ‘0’ to ‘7’. This
screen covers one analogue input card.
1. Analogue input card number.

2. Analogue channel number on the card (from ‘0’ to ‘7’).
3. The ID number is the link from an analogue input to a standard analogue value. This ID
number is modifiable to make a selection in the standard analogue value list, for a complete
list with all standard analogue values see “Analogue Variables List”.
4. Analogue input in percentage of the input signal, presentation from 0.0 to 100.0%.
5. Real value of the analogue input. Re-scaled according to the values, as configured in points 7,

Data integrity
Connecting a Pt100 in the right way is very important. It is very easy to interchange wires; the
“wrong” results are most of the time predictable. Possible results have been put in a table.
The troubleshooting table below is showing possible connections and their readout values. The
hardest problem is to find out if the jumper/switch is set to 2 wire operation, if a 3 wire system
is connected. The small changes are then depending on the resistance of the extra length of
wire.
