Screen Explanation:
This screen shows the values of defined “Control Sensors”. This screen
is mainly for navigation.
Direct Sensor (62512):
Press “Direct Sensor” in the “Sensors – 42” screen to access the
“Direct Sensor Information – 422” screen and then press “Direct Defin.” To access:
Screen Explanation (Element Screen):
For each sensor define the following parameters:
•
Sensor Value:
(Information only). Shows the current value of the sensor.
•
Sensor Fault:
(Information only). The options are:
Sens.OK, DefFail
– error definition,
Shorted
.
•
Connect Slot/Port:
(Information only). Go to screen no. 62511 in the “Technical Menus”
to define it.
•
Sensor Type *:
The options are:
o
4-20 mA:
Definition of sensor that transmits 4-20 milli-amperes (the standard sensor).
o
0-2 Volt:
Definition of sensor that transmits 0-2 Volts (for low energy consumption).
•
Mininum/Maximum Values (2 parameters):
Define the two extreme points of the
reading. The low point is received when the sensor transmits 4 mA and the high is when
the sensor transmits 20 mA. The rest of the points are linear.
•
Calibration:
If the sensors reading is lower than a reference sensor (for example: a manual
pH sensor) it is possible to calibrate by adding/subtracting a number. (Use the minus sign,
press “Select” to subtract.)
Control Sensors (421):
“Control Sensors” are sensors that are used for control purposes (e.g.
to make conditions) they can contain six sensor types – see “Sensor Type” in “Control Sensor
Definitions – 4212”. Press “Control Sensor” to access the “Control Sensor Values – 421” screen.
This screen displays all of the current defined sensor values and is used mainly for service purposes.
