The detected distance of the LMA/B will be entered in the box
Distance for 20 mA in mm
. This
distance corresponds to a 20 mA signal at analog output.
Teach 0/4 mA
By clicking the button
Teach 0/4 mA
you can define an object lying within the detection range of the
sensor as the 0/4 mA value for analog output.
The detected distance of the LMA/B will be entered in the box
Distance for 0/4 mA in mm
. This
distance corresponds to a 0/4 mA signal at analog output.
Example: If distance has been set so that 100 mm equals to 4 mA and 45000 mm equals to 20 mA,
analog output will supply 4 mA at 100 mm distance value; current will increase up to 20 mA as
distance reaches 45000 mm.
18.5 Operation display
Operation display
will show the current operating conditions of LMA/B. Distance values as well as
device status and error messages are displayed. Use this mode to test the effect of selections and
software settings on the equipment.
Note:
When you activate Operation display, parameters running in the equipment will be overwritten
by the parameters set in the software. If necessary, store your equipment parameters in a file (see
18.7)

to start operation. Parameters which have been set in the software will be transmitted
to the sensor and sensor will start working. Software will now display current operating conditions of
the sensor.
