5. Enter values in the G file:
If the module was listed: If the module was not listed (you entered the ID):
You get the G–file Setup screen.
Enter data from the table, below.
You get the following display, shown in decimal radix.
Enter a value in each word as shown, next.
G–file display for unlisted module (shown in decimal radix):
Ge:0 2056 0 0 0 0 0 0
Enter a value at each G-file word address and press [ENTER].
Then cursor to the next word address and repeat. For example:
Ge:0 2056 893 730 12 1200 –32768 0
We used values from the ladder logic example (appendix B).
You will want to use G-file values that suit your application:
Word: Function of G-file Word: Range: Description of G-file Word or Bit: Example:
0 Reserved. Do NOT use. n/a The processor stores a code for the 1746-QV module. 2056
words 1 & 2 refer to the gradient or transducer calibration value stamped on the name plate on the transducer housing.
1 LDT calibration: upper 3 digits
800-999 ms/inch
For example: To enter an LDT calibration of 8.9373,
u e deci al radi and enter 893 in word 1 and 73 in word 2.
893
2 LDT calibration: lower 3 digits
000-999 ms/inch
For e a ple o enter an calibration of 8.9373
use decimal radix and enter 893 in word 1 and 730 in word 2.
730
3 Full-scale length (L) of LDT 2vLv160 inch Enter the length of the LDT (160 inches max). 12
4 Full-scale count (C) 2vCvLx100 Typically C = L x 100.
Position Data (I:e.1) = C/(L x 100)

Important: The module checks for invalid data such as out of
range values or the setting of reserved bits 0-12. You can clear a
data-entry configuration error only by re-entering a corrected value.
