1.1.1

Language

Select the menu language

 

 

 

1.1.4

Max. Flow

Maximum flow rate

 

 

The value set is represented by a 20 mA analogue current output. If the current

 

 

value exceeds the preset value, an alarm is indicated.

1.1.5

Min. Flow

Minimum flow rate

 

 

The set value does not represent the 4 mA value of the current output.

1.1.6

Timeconst.

Time constant, damping value [s]

 

 

 

2.1.1

Test I

Check current output

 

 

 

2.1.2

Test P

Test pulse output

 

 

 

3.1.1

Error Msg.

Error indicator

 

 

Yes: error messages are displayed

 

 

No: error messages are suppressed. A flashing cursor at the top left indicates

 

 

that error messages are present.
