Description
Function Description
Dierence The analog output signal is proportional to the dierence between the measured
values of sensors 1 and 2.
Average value measurement The analog output signal is proportional to the average value of the measured values
of sensors 1 and 2.
Max. The analog output signal is proportional to the sensor with the highest value.
Min. The analog output signal is proportional to the sensor with the lowest value.
Sensor drift When the dierence of the measured values between sensor 1 and sensor 2 exceeds
a dened limit, a sensor drift warning or sensor drift error is displayed.
Redundancy (hot backup) The analog output signal is proportional to the primary sensor (sensor 1 or sensor 2)
as long as no error is detected and the input is within the user-dened limit. If an error
is detected at the primary sensor or the sensor 1 value is outside the user-specic
limit, the analog output signal becomes proportional to the redundant sensor (sen‐
sor 1 or sensor 2) and a warning is generated.
User-specic linearization - Callendar-
Van Dusen coecients
Supports the change of the Callendar-Van Dusen coecients.
Custom type - Linearization table Supports the input of up to 60 breakpoints.
Custom type - Spline curve Supports the input of up to 40 breakpoints.
Operating hours counter - Transmitter
electronics
Recording of the internal transmitter temperatures during operation, recording time
in each of 9 xed sub-temperature ranges.
Operating hours counter - Sensors Recording of the sensor measuring temperatures during operation, recording time in
each of 9 xed sub-temperature ranges.
The subranges are specied separately for each sensor type.
Peak values - Transmitter electronics Recording of the minimum and maximum internal transmitter temperature across
the entire device lifetime.
Peak values - Sensors The recording of the min./max. measured values of the sensor(s) is saved. When the
measurement conguration is changed, the values are reset.
