Note
Process value too large to display
In some cases, it is possible that the process value is too large to show on the local display,
"
#####" will show instead.
If this occurs in a typical application:
•
Adjust parameter "Units" so that a smaller value can be shown, e.g. use meters instead of
millimeters.
If this occurs in a custom application:
•
Adjust parameter "Custom units" so that a smaller value can be shown, e.g. use tons
instead of pounds.
•
Note that a change to custom units also requires a manual scaling adjustment.
