Sensor programming
15. SENSOR PROGRAMMING
Since on ALMEMO
®
devices all sensor programming is stored in the ALMEMO
®
connector itself, the user will not normally need to reprogram each time. Pro-
gramming will only be necessary e.g. if sensor errors are corrected, if your own
sensors are scaled, or if certain limit values are stipulated; in these circum-
stances there are comprehensive programming functions available.
In the
Channel functions
menus all parameters
for a channel can be viewed and checked and
(so long as the appropriate sensor is plugged in)
can be entered and modified via the keypad.
Series sensors by default have the locking mode
enabled to protect them against unintended al-
teration; if modification really is required this
locking mode must first be lowered to an appro-
priate level (s. 15.4).Functions can only be selected if the locking mode allows.

15.1 Selecting the input channel
To view or edit a sensor's parameters you must first select the menu
Channel
functions 1
and then set the required input channel by means of keys

or
▼
; (new V7 channel numbering applies). Only sensors actually connected and
channels actually activated can be processed. To activate a new channel key
<MALL>
should first be pressed; this accesses all selectable channels. Then
key
<MACT>
should be pressed; this accesses only those that are active. For
each input channel the associated connector number is displayed.

15.2 Channel designation
Each measuring channel can be assigned an alphanumerical designation
(standard sensors up to 10 characters, D7 sensors up to 20 characters); this
should denote as clearly as possible the type of sensor, measuring location,
and / or purpose. This designation is included in all standard measured value
displays. In the case of a measured value output via the interface this channel
designation appears online as soon as a scan starts; in the case of output from
memory it appears in the table header as ´
