The selected measuring range corresponds to the analog input signal range of 4-20 mA. No
other input signals can be used. If the temperature sensor is configured according to the
NAMUR standard, the NAMUR mode should be selected for the analog input signal. In that
case only input signals within the range of 3.8 - 20 mA are accepted. If the NAMUR mode is
not selected, input signals within the range of 2 - 21 mA are accepted.
The limits normally mark the span in which temperature compensation is possible. If the
temperature signal exceeds the specified limits, this will be signalled as a maintenance
request.
The parameters for the temperature correction in the corresponding factory function are
component-specific. Selection of the temperature mode in function 83 is channel-specific.
The temperature correction can be switched off.

You can use this function to activate or deactivate correction of cross interference from other
gases. The gases that require corrective measures depend on the application and only the
appropriate ones are visible in screen 84. The function should be turned off when calibrating dry
gas. If the gas is not calculated by the instrument itself, a gas concentration value should be
entered manually. This value should be the typical or average concentration of the interfering
gas.

Manual Value:
You can use this function for applications where a water correction is indicated.
If the water concentration is not measured by the instrument itself, a water concentration value
can be entered manually, otherwise this function is blocked.
In applications without water compensation, the function 84 is not accessible.

You can use this function to set the length of the measuring path for the specific channel. Please
refer to the sensor manual for more information on measuring the path length.
