Commissioning (block-based operation)
11.1.3 Configuring the Transducer Blocks
The measurement and the display module are configured using the Transducer Blocks. The
general procedure is the same for all Transducer Blocks:
1. If necessary, change the block name.
2. Set the block mode to OOS by means of the Block Mode/MODE_BLK parameter,
TARGET element.
3. Configure the device in accordance with the measuring task →  41.
4. Set the block mode to Auto by means of the Block Mode/MODE_BLK parameter,
TARGET element.
The block mode must be set to Auto for the measuring device to function correctly.
11.1.4 Configuring the Analog Input Blocks
The device has 2 Analog Input Blocks that can be assigned as required to the various process
variables.

1. If necessary, change the block name.
2. Set the block mode to OOS by means of the Block Mode/MODE_BLK parameter,
TARGET element.
3. Use the Channel/CHANNEL parameter to select the process variable which should be
used as the input value for the Analog Input Block .
4. Use the Transducer Scale/XD_SCALE parameter to select the desired unit and the
block input range for the process variable →  39. Make sure that the unit selected
suits the process variable selected. If the process variable does not suit the unit, the
Block Error/BLOCK_ERR parameter reports Block Configuration Error and the block
mode cannot be set to Auto.
5. Use the Linearization Type/L_TYPE parameter to select the type of linearization for
the input variable (factory setting: Direct). Make sure that the settings for the
Transducer Scale/XD_SCALE and Output Scale/ OUT_SCALE parameters are the
same for the Direct linearization type. If the values and units do not match, the Block
Error/BLOCK_ERR parameter reports Block Configuration Error and the block mode
cannot be set to Auto.
6. Enter the alarm and critical alarm messages by means of the High High Limit/
HI_HI_LIM, High Limit/HI_LIM, Low Low Limit/LO_LO_LIM and Low Limit/LO_LIM
parameters. The limit values entered must be within the value range specified for the
Output Scale/ OUT_SCALE parameter →  39.
