      Configuring a Physical Input Channel to read from a 4-20mA Transducer

      How do I configure a physical input channel to read from a 4-20mA transducer?

      1. Once the SNA has been set for a Physical Input channel, you can click on the "Advanced" button.
      2. Set the "Scaling Option" to 4-20ma Scaling.
      3. The x1 and x2 values are set to 4ma and 20ma by default for the transducer.
      4. The y1 and y2 values must be configure properly to get a correct reading.
      5. Take a reading when the output of the transducer is 4ma. That will be the value for y1.
      6. Now take a reading when the output of the transducer is 20ma. That will be the value of y2.
