CHAPTER 4Sensor Type Configuration203Note: Due to its linear characteristic, a linear sensor is by defaultexactly defined by only two input values, the minimum andthe maximum. The range for OC sensors is 0 - 1 Units, bydefault.• Linear output value - entry of the minimum and maximumvalue of the linear output range which has to correspond tothe linear input value range, in the engineering units whichhave been selected;• Verifier - entry of the minimum and maximum value withinwhich valid sensor measurement results can be expected. Ifthe values are outside the preset thresholds, an invalid sensorvalue will be notified;• Display scale - enter the minimum and maximum value forscaling which should to be displayed on the trend graph“Sensor data graphic”.SDI sensor typesThe “Sensor type” window provides the following window areasfor SDI sensor types:• Common settings - for entering the common definitions ofthe sensor type, especially determining its technology;• SDI sensor settings - for determining the control of the SDIsensor;• Conversion settings - for determining the method ofconversion of input values to output values or to define asensor table for conversion, respectively.
