Configure the output value CONT_C

General
You can set CONT_C in the manual or automatic mode.
1. To set a manual manipulated value, activate the option "Activate manual mode" option
check box.
You can specify a manual manipulated value on the input parameter MAN.
Manipulated value limits
The manipulated value is limited at the top and bottom so that it can only accept valid values.
You cannot turn off the limitation. Exceeding the limits is displayed through the output
parameters QLMN_HLM and QLMN_LLM.
1. Enter a value for the high and low manipulated value limits.
If the manipulated value is a physical size, the units for the high and low manipulated
value limits must match.
Scaling
The manipulated value can be scaled for output as a floating point and periphery value
through a factor and an offset according to the following formula.
Scaled manipulated value = manipulated value x factor + offset
Default is a factor of 1.0 and an offset of 0.0.
1. Enter a value for the factor and offset.
