Analogue signal out of range.

All input channel signal levels are constantly monitored. If the signal is outside the specified limits, an alarm will be generated. 

 

(See also: ChError.)

 

PD 640 (mA):

Signal too high:

 

 

Alarm bit “SignalHigh” is set if the input signal exceeds 20 mA by more than 10%. (22 mA) (AnalogIn is held at 22 mA)

Signal too low:

 

 

Alarm bit “SignalLow” is set if the input signal falls below 0 mA by more than 5%. (-1 mA) (AnalogIn is held at –1 mA)

No load /

Wire broken:

 

 

4-20 mA mode only: A monitor of the input signal can be enabled to create an alarm “NoLoad” if the current falls below 3 mA.

This will indicate a no load or wire broken situation.

 

 

PD 641 / 643 (Pt100/Pt1000):

Signal too high:

 

 

Alarm bit “SignalHigh” is set if the input signal exceeds 200 °C.

(AnalogIn is held at 200 °C)

Signal too low:

 

 

Alarm bit “SignalLow” is set if the input signal falls below –100 °C.

(AnalogIn is held at -100 °C)

 

 

PD 642 / 643 (mV / thermocouple):

Signal too high:

 

 

Alarm bit “SignalHigh” is set if the input signal exceeds 100 mV by more than 10%, (110 mV) (AnalogIn is held at 110 mV), or exceeds the thermocouple’s specified range:

Type E: +1000 C

Type K: +1372 C

Type N: +1300 C

Type R: +1768 C

Type S: +1768 C

Type T: +400 C

Type J: +1200 C

Type B: +1820 C

(AnalogIn is held at high limit)

 

Signal too low:

 

 

Alarm bit “SignalLow” is set if the input signal falls below 0 mV by more than 5%, (-5 mV) (AnalogIn is held at 110 mV), or falls below the thermocouple’s specified range:

Type E: -94.8 C

Type K: -53.7 C

Type N: -270 C

Type R: -50 C

Type S: -50 C

Type T: -166.5 C

Type J: -109.1 C

Type B: 0 C.

(AnalogIn is held at low limit)
