Analogue output
The analogue output enables standardised analogue distance data transfer over long distances by
means of a two-wire line. The current of 4...20 mA impressed in the line is proportional to the meas-
ured distance within an adjustable distance interval. Parameterisation is done via the serial interface.
The current to be put out in case of faulty measurements is parameterised via the command SEx.
Analogue output properties:
-
4 mA ... 20 mA
-
Indication in case of error: 3 mA or 21 mA (selectable via parameter SE) or last measured value
-
Resolution: 16 bit digital-to-analogue converter
If current/voltage is to be converted, there must be a load resistor of < 500 Ohms/0.5 W (12 V of inter-
nal voltage --> max. measuring current of 0.024 A) between current output QA and GND
.
