Procedure
1. Main menu > "3. Maintenance & diagnostics" > "11. Test" > "1. Test inputs/outputs" >
"2. Analog inputs"
Use this menu to access the assigned test parameters of all analog inputs. You also
activate the test function for all activated analog inputs.
Note
Principle of operation
When you enable the test function, the analog inputs are released from their actual
function.
You can have a test current set by one of the existing analog outputs for the analog input
to be tested. Use of an external current simulator is not required. If you are specifying a
setpoint for the connected analog output, the current value can be tested at the analog
input.
The navigation lines of the menus are structured as follows:
