CHAPTER 4Sensor Type Configuration207Figure 233. Sensor type - Conversion settings - Sensor table - SDINote: If a sensor table is entered for a non-linear sensor, the fol-lowing entries for Linear input value refer to the output val-ues of the linearization table and not to the voltagemeasured on the analog pin!• Linear input value - entry of the minimum and maximum valueof the range within which the sensor delivers measurements;Note: Due to its linear characteristic, a linear sensor is by defaultexactly defined by only two input values, the minimum andthe maximum. The range for SDI 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”.Combo Sensor TypesA combo sensor type consists of several (at least two) “normal”sensors and may have its own name, manufacturer and subclass(i.e., the name of each individual sensor type within the combosensor). For example, an sensor of type “SEN-R” for binder typeconnectors provides a temperature sensor which uses pin 1 and arelative humidity sensor which uses pin 2; thus, this combo sensor
