SIG.ERROR –
Configuration of signal level fault detection
The
SIG-ERROR
function is used to detect a fault on the input signal.
If signal fault detection is activated, the respective fault is indicated on the display.
(See Chapter “30.1. Error messages on the display”.
A fault detection on the input signal is only possible for signal types 4 -20 mA and Pt 100.
The particular menu branch is hidden for other signal types.
•
4.-.20.mA:
Fault if input signal (
≤
.
3.5 mA (± 0.5 % of final value, hysteresis 0.5 % of final value )
•
Pt.100
(can be set for process controller TypeEP 501 C only):
Fault if input signal 225 °C (± 0.5 % of final value, hysteresis 0.5 % of final value)
The signal type is set in the following menus:
1
.
INPUT
(for Types EP 501 and EP 501 C):
See Chapter “21.1. INPUT - Setting the input signal”.
2.
P.CONTROL
(for Type EP 501 C and when process controller activated):
See Chapter “23.2.1. PV-INPUT – Specifying signal type for the process actual value”.
NOTE: The fault detection is only possible if the external set-point value default was selected in
SP-
INPUT
. See Chapter “23.2.3. SP-INPUT – Type of the set-point value default (intern or extern)”.
