Level alarms on analogue channels

 

Alarms on analogue channels can be selected as

  • AnalogIn higher than Level1
  • AnalogIn higher than Level2
  • AnalogIn lower than Level1
  • AnalogIn lower than Level2.
  • No load / Wire broken.

 

Limit alarm can be enabled to create an alarm signal, when the AnalogIn values are higher and/or lower than the limits specified. Level1 and Level2 alarm conditions can be combined freely, which makes the system very flexible.

 

No load / Wire broken. When using the analogue channels in 4–20 mA mode, a current monitor can be enabled to produce an alarm if the current drops below 3 mA.
