The following tables give the meaning of the variables, depending on the value of the
"transmitter type" parameter. This allows you to select the units available in mode 14.
Table 6- 5 Measurement type "Absolute pressure", "Differential pressure" and "Pressure"
Source of measured value display
From analog input function block:
[0] : Output : OUT (P)
Pressure
From pressure transducer block:
[1] : Secondary variable 1
[2] : Measurement value (primary
PRIM (P) Pressure
[4] : Electronics temperature

Volume
Total mass flow
Flow not relevant for relative and
*) The option of selecting the physical unit is additionally determined by the channel setting (mass or
volume) of the analog input and totalizer function blocks.
