OUTPUTS CURRENT OUTPUT (1...3) CONFIGURATION<br />

MEASURING MODE<br />

(4004)<br />

Use this function to define the measuring mode for the current output.<br />

Options:<br />

STANDARD<br />

SYMMETRY<br />

PULSATING FLOW<br />

Factory setting:<br />

STANDARD<br />

<strong>Description</strong> <strong>of</strong> the individual options:<br />

• STANDARD<br />

The current output signal is proportional to the measured variable. The flow<br />

components outside the scaled measuring range (defined by the 0_4 mA VALUE m<br />

and the 20 mA VALUE n) are taken into account as follows for signal output.<br />

– If one <strong>of</strong> the values is defined as equal to the zero flow (e.g. VALUE 0_4 mA =<br />

0 kg/h), no message is given if this value is exceeded or not achieved and the<br />

current output retains its value (in example 4 mA).<br />

If the other value is exceeded or not achieved, the message “CURRENT OUTPUT<br />

AT FULL SCALE VALUE” appears and the current output responds in accordance<br />

with the parameter setting in the function FAILSAFE MODE (4006).<br />

– If both values defined are not equal to the zero flow (for example<br />

VALUE 0_4 mA = –5 kg/h, VALUE 20 mA = 10 kg/h), the message “CURRENT<br />

OUTPUT AT FULL SCALE VALUE” appears if the measuring range is exceeded or<br />

not achieved and the current output responds in accordance with the parameter<br />

settings in the function FAILSAFE MODE (4006).<br />

• SYMMETRY<br />

The current output signal is independent <strong>of</strong> the direction <strong>of</strong> flow (absolute amount <strong>of</strong> the<br />

measured variable). The 0_4 mA VALUE m and the 20 mA VALUE n must have the<br />

same sign (+ or -). The “20 mA VALUE” o (e.g. backflow) corresponds to the mirrored<br />

20 mA VALUE n (e.g. flow).<br />

! Note!<br />

• The direction <strong>of</strong> flow can be output via the configurable relay or status outputs.<br />

• SYMMETRY cannot be selected unless the values in the VALUE 0_4 mA (4002) and<br />

VALUE 20 mA (4003) functions have the same sign or one <strong>of</strong> the values is zero. If the<br />

values have different signs, SYMMETRY cannot be selected and an “ASSIGNMENT<br />

NOT POSSIBLE” message is displayed.<br />
