9.3.4 LIMIT.RETURN PNT Menu Item
This is the numeric value at which the limit deactivates. In gen-
eral, this number should differ from the set point values by at 
least 1% of full scale.
Carefully consider what value should be entered for the RETURN 
POINT. If the signal is expected to approach the SET POINT from 
a lower value, the RETURN POINT value should be less (algebra-
ically) than the SET POINT. If the signal is expected to approach 
the SET POINT from a higher level, the RETURN POINT should be 
higher (algebraically) than the SET POINT.
9.3.5 LIMIT.ENERGIZE Menu Item
This specifies when to activate the limit relative to the set point 
and return point.
The options for this menu item are:
• “SIGNAL > SETPOINT” means the limit will activate when the 
signal is higher than the set point.
• “SIGNAL < SETPOINT” means the limit will activate when the 
signal is lower than the set point.
• “SIGNAL INSIDE” means the limit will activate when the signal 
is in between the set point and the return point.
• “SIGNAL OUTSIDE” means the limit will activate when the signal 
is not in between the set point and the return point.
The figures below further illustrate the differences between these 
settings.
