3 | Commissioning FISCHER Mess- und Regltechnik GmbH NOTICE Response time At maximum damping it can take over 2 minutes until the pressure jump from the nominal pressure 100% to 0% is also shown as zero in the display. In many cases, unsteady readings are not a problem during normal operating mode, but this is not true for the idle state, i.e.

FISCHER Mess- und Regltechnik GmbH Commissioning | 3 NOTICE Adjustment of the output signal The basic measuring range (indicated on the type label) and the type of output signal (voltage / current) are not variable. The parameters MB start MB end initially define the two pressures between which the output signal will change at all.
