Proper use
The devices of the PVE4 range for standard signals (direct voltage, direct current) are used for the
evaluation of different sensor signals. The electronic circuit alters the sensor signal lying at the input
and displays it in a 7-segment display. The use of the devices regarding to the ambient conditions
must be in accordance to their protection type.
Programming
(see also programming example)
The PVE4 must be installed by a suitably qualified specialist (e.g. with a qualification in
industrial electronics).
1. Assemble the unit in a suitable panel cut-out.
2. Connect device in line with connection diagram. Connect screen of the sensor line with suitable
potential. Switch on supply voltage. This is followed by a segment test with subsequent switching
to operating mode.
3. Press program key [P]. Program number 0 is displayed (lights up).
4. Change program number by simultaneously pressing program key [P] and V key.
5. By pressing the V or W key, the display changes to the value stored under this program number.
6. Change displayed value by pressing the W or V key.
7. With program numbers 1 and 2, the applied voltage (sensor calibration under program number 0
active) can be saved by simultaneously pressing the [P] and W keys. This is confirmed by the
appearance of a horizontal bar in the display. If a different calibration mode (1, 2, 3) is selected, it
is not necessary to apply a voltage to the measuring input. In these modes, all that is needed is to
assign certain display data to the stored restart points (offset and full-scale). The programming is
also carried out under the program numbers 1 and 2 and must be saved with the [P] and W keys.
The appearance of horizontal bars in the display confirms that the save was successful.
8. If no further keys are pressed, the device changes back to operating mode after approx. 7
seconds. This definitively saves all the data, which do not have to be explicitly saved with the P
and W keys.

Variation 1
Unrestricted programming. The user has access to all program
numbers.
Variation 2
Programming locked, programming is not possible. The
programming mode is blocked.
Variation 3
Restricted programming. The program numbers 1...6 are blocked
for the user. The program number 61...68 (setpoints) can be
freely configured.
