    DAG-M4F 11. Alarms / Relays This device has 4 virtual alarms that can monitor one limit value in regard of an undercut or exceedance. Each alarm can be allocated to an optional relay output S1- S4; furthermore, alarms can be controlled by events like e.g. hold or min/max-value. page 34 DAG-M4F K08/0623...
  • Page 35 DAG-M4F Operating current By operating current, the alarm S1-S2 is off below the threshold and on on reaching the threshold. Quiescent current By quiescent current the alarm S1-S2 is on below the threshold and switched off on reaching the threshold. Switching-on delay The switching-on delay is activated via an alarm and e.g.

  • Page 36: Interfaces Rs232 And Rs485

    DAG-M4F 12. Interfaces RS232 and RS485 The interface RS485 is connected via a screened data line with twisted wires (Twisted-Pair). On each end of the bus segment a termination of the bus lines needs to be connected. This is necessary to ensure a secure data transfer to the bus.

  • Page 37: Programmer Examples

    DAG-M4F 13. Programmer examples Example for the rotation speed adjustment In this application the rotation speed of an axis shall be collected via a toothed wheel with 30 sprockets, per Namur sensor. It is then displayed with one position after decimal point and the dimension rpm.
  • Page 38 DAG-M4F Example for angle coverage: On a manually operated bender for sheet metal the bending angle shall be displayed in degree. The device is in zero state (0°) during switching on of the display. An incremental encoder with 360 pulses/rotation is used. Examples: Adjustment according to number of sprockets at unknown rotation speed.
  • Page 39 DAG-M4F If the frequency needs to be displayed with a position after decimal point, then a 60 has to be selected as final value for this adjustment. Example: Rotation speed of a machine shaft There are 4 sprockets on one machine shaft. Applied in an angle of 90° to each other and to the rotation speed measurement.
