Operating functions through HART
7.4 Setting zero point and limit point
Example
In the Level measuring mode, the start of scale value is assumed as 0 m and the full scale
value as 10 m in the example illustrated in the following picture. (Input scaling: 0 to 2 bar)
The value of 2 m is displayed at a process pressure of 0.4 bar.

Setting zero point and limit point
You can set the zero point and the limit point using the SIMATIC PDM or HART
Communicator. You can use this function to realize rising or falling characteristic curves.
The pressure unit can be set separately for the display and for HART communication.
