3.4.3.5 Parameters for describing user-defined position sensors
The storage of user-defined position sensors is optional. As a rule, sensors from the list of supported
position sensors should be used. No further description of them is required by the user.
It is possible to store up to three user-defined position sensors on the device to support special
applications with measuring systems and sensors that are not listed in the list of supported position
sensors. They can then be selected for use on an analogue input module using the "sensor type"
sensor parameter.
The properties of a user-defined position sensor, which are required for the correct interpretation of
its measurement signals, are defined using the following parameters. The parameters for description
of user-defined position sensors are read and written via channel 17 (user-defined peripherals) of
the transfer mode and can be performed via the process data of any valve
è
3.5.4 Transfer mode. A
position sensor type defined in this way is available for all analogue input module ports on the Motion
Terminal.
ID Parameter Value range Value digit Digit range
1 Detection range (max-
imum value)
0 … 10000 mm 1 mm 0 … 10000 × 1 mm
Interpretation of the measured signal: 4 mA Z 0 mm
20 mA Z maximum value sensing range
Tab. 35: Parameters for describing user-defined position sensors
The parameters for the description of user-defined position sensors are not included in the parameter
sets because they are independent of the valves.
3.4.3.6 Parameters for describing user-defined flow sensors
The storage of user-defined flow sensors is optional. As a rule, sensors from the list of supported flow
sensors should be used. No further description of them is required by the user.
It is possible to store up to three user-defined flow sensors on the device to support special applica-
tions with measuring systems and sensors that are not listed in the list of supported flow sensors.
They can then be selected for use on an analogue input module using the "sensor type" sensor
parameter.
The properties of a user-defined flow sensor that are required for the correct interpretation of its
measurement signals are defined using the following parameters. The parameters for description
of user-defined flow sensors are read and written via channel 17 (user-defined peripherals) of the
