    Hi,

    Is 4…20mA Input possible?
    Or mybe a input expansion card available or in development?

    Thanks in advance.

    4-20mA is currently not possible, but there is a card in development.

    We use hundreds of 4-20ma and 10-50ma current loops where I work. You could either use a precision resistor, such as a 249ohm 0.1%, which would allow you to input as a scaled 1-5volts, or, a less precise resistor, measured accurately, and then scaled appropriately.
