functions

The suitable hydraulic variant for the specifi c application is selected here (see B.5 
Hydraulic variants). The associated diagram can be displayed by pressing “info”. 

Setting range: 1-16/default setting: 1 

8.1  Program selection / Hydraulic variant selection

Caution

Normally the program selection is made only once during initial com-
missioning by the specialist. Incorrect program selection can lead to 
unpredictable errors.

Menu “8. Special functions” is used to set basic 
items and expanded functions.

The menu is closed by pressing “esc” or select-
ing “Exit special functions”.

Caution

Other than the time all settings may 
only be made by a specialist.

Deviations in the temperature values displayed, for example due to cables which are to 
long or sensors which are not positioned optimally, can be compensated for manually 
here. The settings can be made for each individual sensor in steps of 0.5°C.

Offset S1...S3 per setting range: -100 to +100 (translates to -50°C...+50°C)
Default setting: 0

8.2 Sensor 

calibration

Caution

Settings are only necessary in special cases at the time of initial com-
missioning by the specialist. Incorrect measurement values can lead to 
unpredictable errors.
