Silopilot FMM50 Commissioning Meaning The measurement procedure starts if the device is in the display mode (function man. start 000) or external start button 815 Enabling and disabling the keypad lock If the lock symbol appears in the local display and in front of the input values of the functions, the parameterization is protected by a key lock, no more values can be entered or changed in the entire operating menu.
Commissioning Silopilot FMM50 Configuring the device The device is configured via the individual function groups and the associated functions in the groups. The following chapters list the functions required for normal commissioning. Special functions such as linearization can be found in the BA00286F operating manual. The default values are always shown in bold in the following chapters, unless they are explicitly menti- oned.
