Measuring
MC4 is capable of performing the following measurement functions:
• Current measurement
• Frequency measurement
• Pressure measurement
(with an optional internal pressure module or with an external
pressure module)
• Pulse counting
• Switch state sensing
• Voltage measurement
• Resistance measurement
• RTD temperature measurement
• T/C temperature measurement
To start measuring a certain quantity, configure one of the Basic
State's windows (select F1/ Setup  or F2/ Setup ). Use the Enter
key to open to the list of Functions (uppermost field in the
configuration window) and select what you want to measure. All
other fields refine the measurement characteristics.
When presenting measurements in this manual, the first paragraph
describes the measurement followed by the Function setting
needed to start that particular measurement.
Notes.
In this manual, MC4's measurement Functions are presented in
alphabetic order. The order the Functions appear on your MC4
depends on which Functions have been used most recently.
A Function or a set of Functions using the same terminals can not be
selected for several windows simultaneously. MC4 limits the list of
available Functions based on Functions already in use. To free
terminals, select No Function for appropriate window.
