Digital Output Signalling (solid-state output): menu level 1

To set values for Upper and Lower Threshold Delay, and Upper and Lower Threshold Setting, the solid-state switch output must be enabled (menu 17). When solid-state switch output is disabled these menu selections display only - - - -.

Upper Threshold Delay (solid-state output)

The Upper Threshold Delay controls the Activation delay: the amount of time that has to pass uninterrupted with the probe covered to a level above the Upper Threshold Setting before the timer expires. After the timer expires, the output signal will comply to the setting from Menu 18 for a covered probe. Whenever the level drops below the Upper Threshold Setting before the timer expires, the timer is restarted.

When the solid-state switch control (Menu 17) is disabled, menu 13 displays - - - -. When the solid-state switch control is enabled, menu 13 displays the Activation delay in seconds. As an extra identifier, an upward running d is displayed to the right of the value.
