• Sensor 1 (measured value)
• Sensor 2 (measured value)
• Device temperature
• Average of the two measured values: 0.5 x (SV1+SV2)
• Difference between sensor 1 and sensor 2: SV1-SV2
• Sensor 1 (backup sensor 2): If sensor 1 fails, the value of sensor 2 automatically becomes
the primary HART
®
value (PV): sensor 1 (OR sensor 2)
• Sensor switching: If the value exceeds the configured threshold value T for sensor 1, the
measured value of sensor 2 becomes the primary HART
switches back to sensor 1 if the measured value of sensor 1 is at least 2 K below T:
sensor 1 (sensor 2, if sensor 1 > T)
• Average: 0.5 x (SV1+SV2) with backup (measured value of sensor 1 or sensor 2 in the
event of a sensor error in the other sensor)
The threshold value can be configured using the Sensor switch set point
→ 76parameter . With temperature-dependent switching, it is possible to
combine 2 sensors that offer advantages in different temperature ranges.
Sensor 1
Setup → Lower range value
Expert → Output → Lower range value
Use this function to assign a measured value to the current value 4 mA.
The limit value that can be set depends on the sensor type used in the Sensor type
→ 69 parameter and the measured variable assigned in the Assign current
output (PV) parameter.
Depends on the sensor type and the setting for "Assign current output (PV)".
0
Setup → Upper range value
Expert → Output → Upper range value
Use this function to assign a measured value to the current value 20 mA.
The limit value that can be set depends on the sensor type used in the Sensor type
→ 69 parameter and the measured variable assigned in the Assign current
output (PV) parameter.
Depends on the sensor type and the setting for "Assign current output (PV)".
