You can view maximum and minimum values for the sensor values and the process temperature.

In SIMATIC PDM open the menu View – Peak Values, and click on the appropriate tab.

3.4.1. Min. Measured Value1 (default 0.000)

The minimum recorded Sensor value, defined in Sensor units.

3.4.2. Max. Measured Value1

The maximum recorded Sensor value, defined in Sensor units.

3.4.3. Min. Sensor Value (default 0.000) – PROFIBUS PA only

Defines the minimum usable value for the measuring range (physical limit of the sensor) in Sensor units.

3.4.4. Max. Sensor Value (default 100.000) – PROFIBUS PA only

Defines the maximum usable value for the measuring range (physical limit of the sensor) in Sensor units.

3.4.5. Process Temperature Min.

The minimum recorded temperature of the internal electronics.

Open the menu View – Peak Values and select the tab Temperature. If necessary, click on the Reset button.

3.4.6. Process Temperature Max.

3.5.Detailed Setup

3.5.1.Fail-safe

3.5.1.1.LOE (Loss of Echo) Timer

Amount of time, in minutes, that a Loss of Echo must persist, before the device goes into Fail-safe mode. See Fail-safe Mode for more details.

Values

Range: 0.00 to 720 (minutes)

 

Default: 10.000

 

 

 

3.5.1.2. Restrict LOE (Loss of Echo)

Restricts the rate at which the detected echo is reported when a LOE condition ends, to prevent an immediate jump to the new echo. The rate of restriction is the same as the response (fill/empty) rate.

Parameters

Options

YES (ON) /NO (OFF)

Default: YES

1.In PDM, open View menu, scroll down to Peak Values, and click Sensor tab.
