D6 sensors, the individual variants
5. D6 atmospheric pressure sensor FDAD12
The atmospheric pressure sensor comprises a digital, fully adjusted and temperature-
compensated absolute pressure sensor. Atmospheric pressure can be configured as a
measuring channel with a reference function; the measured value can then also be
used by the measuring instrument to compensate other sensors.

5.2.1 Configurable measuring ranges
Initially the ranges for the measuring channels can be configured from a list of two
ranges (* factory default settings). If required the same ranges can be configured
again on the 2 remaining channels in order e.g. to display measured values in alterna-
tive units. The temperature channel can also be deleted if it is not needed.
