I/O channels
Figure 44: Overview of the I/O channels tab
In this view, the settings are made for the digital signal of each channel. Four channels
are available for this. Settings can be made for each channel individually.
An MF input is also available. The settings for this option can also be made under
I/O
channels
.
NOTE
The digital signals cannot be measured on the device pins but are made available via
the Ethernet interface as part of data transmission.
7.3.7.1
Setting limits
The threshold is set using limits. In doing so, the digital signal is set to
ON
or
OFF
.
Values
±
2,000.00 mm are permissible for the upper limit; the default value is
+2.0 mm (for the 85 mm variant) or +4.0 mm (for the 150 mm variant).
Values
±
2,000.00 mm are permissible for the lower limit; the default value is
-2.0 mm (for the 85 mm variant) or -4.0 mm (for the 150 mm variant).
7.3.7.2
Setting the hysteresis
If the measured value rises slightly above or drops slightly below the threshold, this can
lead to the input and output repeatedly switching on and off within a short space of
time. This can be prevented by assigning a defined tolerance to the measured value via
the hysteresis setting, beyond which the device switches.
NOTE
The limits and the hysteresis can also be set by moving the corresponding marker in the
graphic (blue: limits, yellow: hysteresis).
Values of
±
2,000.000 mm are possible; the default value is 0.0000 mm.
