Functions

2.2.1

Measuring range adjustment

Introduction

The measuring range adjustment is available for current and voltage measuring ranges. Live zero measuring ranges are not supported.

Function

The measuring range adjustment is an adjustment of the measuring range at the sensor.

It allows you to increase the resolution for a configurable part of the measuring range in S7 format.

● You activate the function in STEP 7 (TIA Portal) via the "Measuring range adjustment" parameter.

● The "Measuring range adjustment high limit" parameter sets the high limit of the measuring range in mV or μA.

● The "Measuring range adjustment low limit" parameter sets the low limit of the measuring range in mV or μA.

Note

•

The "Measuring range adjustment" function can be used in combination with the

"Measured value scaling" function, see also Scaling of measured values (Page 17).

•

When the "Measuring range adjustment high limit" and "Measuring range adjustment low

limit" parameters are too close together, resolution may be lost, which means it may no longer be possible to show every value.

Rules

● The limits of the measuring range adjustment must be selected within the nominal range of the base measuring range. They are specified in integers.

● The measuring range adjustment is resolved depending on the base measuring range from 0

to 6C00H or 9400H to 6C00H.

● Underranges/overranges apply in accordance with the S7 format and the base measuring range.

2.2.2

Scaling of measured values

Introduction

The measured value scaling can be combined with the measuring range adjustment. In this case, the measuring range is adjusted first and then the representation of the measuring range is scaled.

Function

With measured value scaling, the user data of the module is displayed in REAL format (32bit floating point) instead of S7 format.

The representation of the measuring range is defined by the following parameters:

● The "Scaled high nominal range limit" parameter sets the desired display value (in REAL

format) for the high nominal range limit of the measuring range.

● The "Scaled low nominal range limit" parameter sets the desired display value (in REAL

format) for the low nominal range limit of the measuring range.

Note Effects of inversion

•

It is possible to set the "Scaled high nominal range limit" parameter lower than the

"Scaled low nominal range limit" parameter, whereby the representation of the measuring range will be inverted compared to the terminal value (V, mA).

•

Overflow/underflow and hardware interrupts are always based on representation in

REAL format. A terminal value of > 11.76 V triggered an underflow for an inverted measured value scaling. Hardware interrupts react similarly.

Substitute value for underflow/overflow

With measured value scaling, the substitute value is minus infinity for underflow (FF80 0000H) and plus infinity for overflow (7F80 0000H).

Resolution at the parameter "Scaled high/low nominal range limit"

en the Parameter "Scaled high nominal range limit" and "Scaled low nominal range limit"

parameters are too close together, resolution may be lost, which means it may no longer be possible to show every value.
