Status indicators
Operator interface
The device works fully automatically in normal operation and requires no operator
intervention.
The SOPAS ET configuration software allows interactive configuration. For this, the
software runs on a computer which is connected to the device with one of the data
interfaces.
The graphic scan view in SOPAS ET is used to verify the generated measured values
and the measuring range online.
NOTE
Scans in SOPAS ET are not displayed in real time, but at a limited speed. Not all
measured values are displayed for this reason.
Status indicators
The LEDs and 7-segment display indicate the operational status of the device.
