If the level is fluctuating around the
target value (e.g. ripple movement
during filling), the hysteresis keeps the
switching status of the outputs stable.
When the level is increasing, the
output switches when the respective
switching point (SP) is reached; if the
level sinks again, the output switches
back only after the reset switching
point (RP) has been reached.

The window function enables moni-
toring of a defined range. If the level
is between window high (FH) and
window low (FL), the output will be
active (normally open) and/or inactive
(normally closed).
The error status of the measuring
device reflects the cable break
monitoring. During an error status,
the measuring device switches to
a safe state; i.e. the switching outputs
become inactive.
As far as the downstream signal
evaluation is concerned, this
corresponds to a cable break.
