bixator Posted March 5, 2016 at 05:28 PM Share Posted March 5, 2016 at 05:28 PM Hi, I'm using a Dual Analog In bricklet to measure some water flow. The sensor I'm using requires DC 5V Power supply and reports its value in a range of 0.5V to 3.5V. So, I've connected the Bricklet to the flow device this way: - 5.0V Output pin '+' to the 5V - 5.0V Output pin '-' to Ground - +/-35V Input 1 'pin 0' to flow analog signal - +/-35V Input 1 'pin 1' to 5.0V Output pin '-' This allows me to get some value but it with some kind of offset (around 700mV) regarding to the expected value. According to the technical support's answer I got from the manufacturer of the device, I should connect the PE of the flow sensor to the equipment which is used to measure the signal of the device. I'm not sure how I would do this (I guess it would be to the 5.0V Output pin '-' to Ground), so any advise would be welcome. Thanks in advance for your help. Regards.
