This function defines the communication range between the valve and the host computer for
POSITION, PRESSURE and SENSOR READING.
Note:
In case ZERO has been performed, gauge offset for PRESSURE and SENSOR
READING is compensated.
Note:
In case 2 sensor operation for pressure control is selected, PRESSURE covers high
range gauge because switchover between sensors is done automatically.
SENSOR 1 READING and SENSOR 2 READING always return full scale values according
to selected range.
Above picture shows a 2 sensor system. In this configuration sensor 2 covers low range (100 mTorr) and sensor 1
covers high range (1 Torr). RANGE CONFIGURATION f
or PRESSURE resp. SENSOR READING is set to 10‟000.
Switchover between sensors is done automatically.
