Analog input scaling

Analog input scaling

Analog input scaling

(OP)
I am installing a differential pressure transmitter, which will be connected to the analog input on the RS3 system.  The rs3 processor changes the 4-20mA input to a signal of 0.8-4V, i am wondering if anyone has experience with the RS3 system and can give me pointers on how to set the Display on the screen to the values i want.  Is the a block i must configure? The DP transmitter is calibrated for -12 to 12 "H20, i would like to display engineering units on the Display rathern then a percentage.  I am a 2010 instrumentation Tech Graduate with little experience.  Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

RE: Analog input scaling

Gee, it's a long time since I used RS3, I remember it being very easy to configure.
I suggest you copy an existing point that is scaled and see how that is done.
Actually I think it might be part of the input module configuration.
Good luck

Roy
