In this tutorial you'll learn how add an analog sensor to the controller, the software, and programming a scaling function to convert the input into an easy-to-recognize distance measure. The focus of this tutorial is to illustrate how easy it is to work with analog signals on the Siemens platform and what it takes to build a function and trace in software in order to be able to condition, monitor, and troubleshoot such signals.
