Analogue inputs of POWER ECU can be configured either
as:
- NOT Used
- Analogue
input Used
The INA configuration is chosen by the parameter
“Mode”.
If the input’s Mode parameter is set to
“not used“. The input is not considered, and there are no
parameters or mnemonics to connect. Only the Mode parameter is available to
allow the use of the input (moving to Analogue input used configuration).
This input is dedicated for resistance
measurement with two possible ranges:
The input value is available for Application as an
analogue value with the mnemonic “Input_Ana”.
This value is given in 0.01 Ohms if Low range is used and in 1 Ohms the input
is used for high range measurement.
A valid range
can be defined with 2 thresholds adjustable by parameter from Application
Software. See model below.

The “threshold_fault”
value indicates to the Application that the input is outside the valid range.
The fault detection is monitored by the Equipment
Variable (more details).
It's possible to apply a filtering on this input.
The filtering gain is adjustable with parameter
“Filtering value”. The
filtering value is adjustable between 5ms to 480ms.
The recurrence period of the ANA frame is set through
the “Recurr. Period: Frame ANA” parameter which
is common for all INA inputs of the POWER ECU. This frame is sent by the POWER
ECU slave to the master to inform about its input value.
: It is not possible to move
to “Not used” configuration while mnemonics are connected.
