6.31.6 Setting the “Fieldbus smart sensor data msg” parameter
This parameter determines how the various available sensor segments are displayed in the
fieldbus messages. If the “Fieldbus smart sensor data msg” is set to “No”, the segments will
be mapped 1 to 1 with the messages. If the parameter is set to “Yes”, the first active sensor
segment will be in the first message, the second active sensor segment will be in the second
message, and so on.
To clarify this, we take the following example. We have a sensor rod with 6 docking positions.
A sensor is only placed at positions 1, 3 and 6, positions 2, 4 and 5 are empty. There are 3 sensor
data elements defined for the Fieldbus.
