● Split mode (combined counter), menu item 4.1.4
The Split mode is activated when ’Active’ is selected.
The "Split value" divides the measuring range (URV) set in menu item 3.1.2. The split
value is only effective when it is smaller than the full-scale value (upper range value,
URV).
When Split mode is activated, if there is a current flow value in the lower subdomain (0 to
split value), this subdomain is shown in a linear way on the set current range (0-20 mA or
4-20 mA), i.e. a current of 20 mA corresponds to the split value. This status can be
indicated on digital outputs 1 or 2, if the "Split value active" function has been set (menu
4.2.1 and 4.3.1)
If the current flow value is within the upper subdomain (split value to full-scale value), the
range 0 to URV is shown in a linear way on the set current range as for the inactive Split
mode.
