•
Status:
Used to enable/disable a channel (inactive / active).
Depending on the status, the measured values are

•
Description of channel/measured value:
Defines the name of the channel. This description is
used for the online display of measured values.
•
Abbreviation:
Defines the channel abbreviation to be used in the
data files. This abbreviation should be selected from
a predefined list (see Section 9: List of abbreviations)
to facilitate synchronization with the Internet
database.
•
Unit:
Defines the unit of measured values . This description
is used in the online display of measured values.
•

The gradient is used to convert the measured input
voltage to physical values.
•
Offset:
Indicates the offset value as a physical value.
