NOTE:
This is the accuracy of the internal sensor input (ha software [linearization]), only. This table does not
include the characteristics of the sensors, themselves (see section “
” below). If a different
sensor or sensor accuracy is required, one may instead use the inputs of, e.g., a connected Panel I/O module.
Recognition of Sensor Failure of Sensor Inputs
The thresholds at which sensor failures
–
i.e., sensor breaks (SB) and short-circuits (SC)
–
are recognized depends upon the
given sensor type. In the event of a recognized sensor failure, the sensor input is set to "invalid." The user may program
safety functions based upon invalid sensor data. Table 13 lists the measurement ranges and the corresponding thresholds
for the recognition of sensor failure for the various different sensor types:

NOTE:
In the case of temperatures lying
outside
the aforementioned ranges, the lowest/highest value
within
the range,
instead, will be communicated. Thus, a temperature of -51 °F
will be communicated as “
-50 °F
.”
Sensor Characteristics
The characteristics (resistance in relation to temperature) of the sensors and the resultant voltage are listed on the
following pages. The stated values do not include failures due to sensor failures; wiring resistance or wiring failures;
misreading’s
due to a meter connected to measure resistance or voltage at the input.
