● If the device is set for pressure measurement, no other measured variables (e.g. volume
flow) are available.
Example
For the pressure measurement, you set the following values, for example:
Damping value: 2.0 s
Lower range value: 0.0 bar
Upper range value: 5.0 bar
Application: Pressure: linear (PRESS)
Unit: bar
Lower scaling point: -
Upper scaling point: -
