Monitoring 0/4-20 mA
SIMOCODE pro supports two-phase monitoring of the analog signals of a transducer
standard 0/4-20 mA output signal. The analog signals are fed to the "0/4-20mA" function
block via the Analog Module:
Trip Level (CiR), Warning Level (CiR)
With 0/4-20 mA Monitoring, you can parameterize two different response levels (Trip
Level/Warning Level) for the upper and lower limit:
Trip level:
0 - 23,6 mA
•
0/4-20> (upper limit)
•
0/4-20< (lower limit)
Warning level:
0 - 23,6 mA
•
0/4-20> (upper limit)
•
0/4-20< (lower limit)
Activity Trip Level, Warning Level
Here you can specify in which motor operating states the Trip Level/Warning Level is to take
effect:
•
Always (on)
Trip Level/Warning Level always takes effect,
regardless of whether the motor is running or
stationary
•
Always, except in the case of TPF (on+) Trip Level/Warning Level always takes effect,
regardless of whether the motor is running or
stationary with the exception of "TPF", i.e.
motor feeder is in test position
•
When the motor is on, except in the case
of TPF (run)
Trip Level/Warning Level only takes effect if
the motor is on and not in the test position
•
When the motor is on, except in the case
of TPF, with start hiding (run+)
The Trip Level/Warning Level only takes
effect if the motor is running and the start-up
procedure is finished, and there is no test
position feedback (TPF)
