7 Block OUTPUTS<br />

Function description<br />

OUTPUTS PULSE/FREQUENCY OUTPUT (1...2) CONFIGURATION (STATUS)<br />

MEASURING MODE<br />

(4246) ! Note!<br />

This function is not available unless STATUS was selected in the OPERATION MODE<br />

function(4200) and the status output was assigned a limit value.<br />

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

Options:<br />

STANDARD<br />

The status output signal switches at the defined switch points.<br />

SYMMETRY<br />

The status output signal switches at the defined switch points, irrespective <strong>of</strong> the sign. If<br />

you define a switch point with a positive sign, the status output signal switches as soon as<br />

the value is reached in the negative direction (negative sign), (see illustration).<br />

Factory setting:<br />

STANDARD<br />

Example for the SYMMETRY measuring mode:<br />

Switch-on point Q = 4, Switch-<strong>of</strong>f point Q = 10<br />

m = Status output switched on (conductive)<br />

n = Status output switched <strong>of</strong>f (nonconductive)<br />

! Note!<br />

• SYMMETRY cannot be selected unless the values in the ON-VALUE (4242) and OFF-<br />

VALUE (4244) functions have the same sign or one <strong>of</strong> the values is zero.<br />

• If the values have different signs, SYMMETRY cannot be selected and an<br />

“ASSIGNMENT NOT POSSIBLE” message is displayed.<br />

TIME CONSTANT<br />

(4247) ! Note!<br />

This function is not available unless the STATUS setting was selected in the OPERATION<br />

MODE function (4200).<br />

Use this function to enter a time constant defining how the measuring signal reacts to<br />

severely fluctuating measured variables, either very quickly (enter a low time constant) or<br />

with damping (enter a high time constant). Damping acts on the measuring signal before<br />

the switch status changes, and consequently before switch-on or switch-<strong>of</strong>f delay is<br />

activated. The purpose <strong>of</strong> damping, therefore, is to prevent the status output changing<br />

state continuously in response to fluctuations in flow.<br />
