8 OPERATION
Conguration
Congure the Qx switching output as input (using Q1 as a redundant overll protection
example).
Note:
The switching output designation (Q1 in the example here) changes according to the
selected process variable to be output: Q1-LVL or Q1-TEMP is now Q1-INP.
1. Log in to Exprt mode, see “8.2.2 Exprt mode”.
2. Congure Q1 as input.
• Set the parameter to INPUT in the Q1-### / MODE1 menu.
3. Congure the action to be performed when the signal is present.
• Set the parameter to MAXLVL in the Q1-INP / ACTIO1 menu (if the external
signal is present, the CFP Cubic outputs the MAXLVL status).
4. Congure the form of the external signal.
• Set the parameter to NO (normally open) in the Q1-INP / POL1 menu.
8.4 Conguration of analog outputs
8.4.1 Automatic signal detection
The CFP Cubic can automatically detect if a 4–20 mA or 0–10 V signal is required
using the connected output load.
The following rules apply:
• 4 mA to 20 mA if load < 500 ohms at U
V
> 15 V
• 4 mA to 20 mA if load < 350 ohms at U
V
> 12 V
• 0 V to 10 V if load > 750 ohms at U
V
≥ 14 V
Conguration
Note:
The analog output designation (QA in the example here) changes according to the
selected process variable to be output.
1. Perform automatic signal detection.
• Set the parameter to AUTO in the QA-### menu.
Note:
Automatic signal detection is only active when the device is switched on for the rst
time. After this, the function can be activated again with AUTO in the QA-### menu.
