This fault message is only output for the period of the increased X-ray
radiation. Then the fault message is automatically reset.

In this menu item you can activate the relay output and determine its

When the output of the process values is set, you can choose be-
tweenoverllanddryrunprotection.
The relay outputs of the sensor react accordingly.
You can choose " no" reference value. In this case, the relay output
operates as fail safe relay.
This does not apply if " X-ray alarm" is selected as reference value. In
this case the fault message is not active.
