Operating modes and settings

Watchdog activation/deactivation (index 0x4061:01, channel 1; index 0x40A1:01, channel 2)

This bit disables the watchdog timer. In the event of a communication fault the analog output value is not reset to the manufacturer or user default value.
If the bit is not set, the manufacturer or user default value is output (default).

Switching between manufacturer- or user-specific output value (index 0x4061:02, channel 1; index 0x40A1:02 channel 2)

The analog output value can, e.g. in the case of a failure of communication with the controller, be set to a user-specific value (index 0x4063). Object 0x4061:02 (channel 1) or object 0x40A1:02 (channel 2) activates this option (value: TRUE); the output values are determined with object 0x4063 (channel 1) or object 0x40A3 (channel 2). If this function is deactivated (value of object 0x4061:02, channel 1 or object 0x40A1:02, channel 2 is FALSE) then the manufacturer's default value (EL4102, EL4132: 0 V, EL4112: 0 mA, EL4122: 4 mA) is output.
No standard value is output if the watchdog timer is deactivated (the value of object 0x4061:01 for Channel 1 or of object 0x40A1:01 for Channel 2 is TRUE).

Activation of user scaling (index 0x4061:03, channel 1; index 0x40A1:03 channel 2)

User scaling is active (bit set):

Example: Calculation and calibration of the output value

The terminal places the raw values of its D/A converter into the DAC raw value object 0x4041:01 or 0x4081:01 (RAM). The output value is adjusted with the manufacturer's calibration values. User scaling can, optionally, follow:

YH =  (XDAC - BK) x  AK

Output value after manufacturer's calibration (corresponds to Yout when feature object 0x4061:03 or 0x40A1:03 is inactive)

Y= Yx Ax 216 + BW

Output value following user scaling

Example: Limitation of the output range of -5 V to +5 V in the case of EL4132, calculation of the GAIN factor of the user scaling

YA = YH x AW x 2-16 + BW

Calculation of the GAIN factor for an upper limit value of +5 V
(corresponds to a lower limit value of -5 V by shortening the sign)

↔(YA - BW) / (YH x 2-16) = AW

YA = 16383dec

corresponds to the desired upper limit value of +5 V

(16383 - 0) / 32767 x 2-16

YH = 32767dec

corresponds to the upper limit value of +10 V

= AW = 32767

BW = 0dec

corresponds to the offset of the user scaling

 

AW= 32767dec

corresponds to the offset value of the user scaling of +7 V

Example: Shifting of the output range of -3 V to +10 V in the case of EL4132, calculation of the OFFSET value of the user scaling

YA = YH x AW x 2-16 + BW

Calculation of the OFFSET value for the shifting of the lower limit value to -3 V

↔ YA -  YH x AW x 2-16  = BW

YA = (- 9831dec)

corresponds to the desired lower limit value of -3 V

(- 9831) - (- 32769 x 65536 x 2-16 )  

YH = (-32769dec)

corresponds to the lower limit value of -10 V

= B= 22938

AW = 65536dec

corresponds to the gain factor of the user scaling (factor 1)

 

BW = 22938dec

corresponds to the offset value of the user scaling of +7 V

Operating modes and settings 1:

OFFSET value

The shifting of the output value by the OFFSET takes place linearly to the lower limit value (-10 V / -10 mA) or upper limit value (+ 10 V / +10 mA).

Presentation, index 0x4061:04, 0x4061:05 (channel 1); index 0x40A1:04, 0x40A1:05 (channel 2)

Index 0x4061:04, 0x4061:05 (channel 1) and index 0x40A1:04, 0x40A1:05 (channel 2) offers the possibility of changing the method of representation of the output value (signed integer, magnitude-sign format or absolute value)
