5.2 Features of the unit
5.2.1 Easy set-up
• When operating voltage is applied to the unit for the first time, the probe length
must be entered. The unit is then ready for operation. (→ 10.2).
• If necessary, parameters for the output signals and optimisation of the monitor-
ing functions can be set (→ 10.3 to 10.6).
• All settings can also be carried out before installation of the unit�
• Reset to the factory settings is possible�
• Electronic lock can be set to prevent unintentional operations�
5.2.2 Display functions
The unit displays the current level, either in cm, inch or in percent of the final
value of the measuring range� Factory setting: inch� The display unit is defined by
programming (→ 10.3). In the Run mode, it can be temporarily switched between
length indication (cm / inch) and percentage:
► Press [Set] briefly�
> The selected unit is displayed for 15 s, the corresponding LED is lit� With each
push of the button the display type is changed�
The set unit of measurement and the switching status of the outputs are indicated
by LEDs�
5.2.3 Switching functions
The unit signals via four switching outputs OUT1���OUT4 that a set limit level has
been reached or that the level is below the limit value�
For each output the following switching functions can be selected:
• Hysteresis function / normally open (fig� 5-3): [OUx] = [Hno]�
• Hysteresis function / normally closed (fig� 5-3): [OUx] = [Hnc]�
First the set point (SPx) is set, then the reset point (rPx) with the requested
difference�
• Window function / normally open (fig� 5-4): [OUx] = [Fno]�
• Window function / normally closed (fig� 5-4): [OUx] = [Fnc]�
The width of the window can be set by means of the difference between
FHx and FLx� FHx = upper value, FLx = lower value�
