• Sensor table - if you want to use a non-linear sensor, select
one of the sensor tables already defined in the menu item
“Sensor Tables” for conversion/linearization; if you intend to
use a linear sensor, select “none”;
Figure 208. Sensor type - Conversion settings - Sensor table - Digital
Note: If a sensor table is entered for a non-linear sensor, the fol-
lowing entries for Linear input value refer to the output val-
ues of the linearization table and not to the voltage
measured on the analog pin!
• Linear input value - entry of the minimum and maximum value
of the range within which the sensor delivers measurements;
Note: Due to its linear characteristic, a linear sensor is by default
exactly defined by only two input values, the minimum and
the maximum. The range for digital sensors is 0 - 1 Units.
• Linear output value - entry of the minimum and maximum
value of the linear output range which has to correspond to
the linear input value range, in the engineering units which
have been selected;
• Verifier - entry of the minimum and maximum value within
which valid sensor measurement results can be expected. If
