ELM360x overview measurement ranges

For an explanation of the terms AC and DC, refer to the chapter "Analog notes ‑ dynamic signals".

The input channels can be operated in principle in the operation mode AC coupling or DC coupling, see chapter "IEPE AC Coupling":

  • AC coupling: the arbitrary input signal is fed via a high-pass filter, after which only the corresponding alternating component (AC) remains for the digital processing inside the terminal.
  • DC coupling: the arbitrary input signal is digitally processed "as it is", irrespective of whether or not it has an alternating component (AC).

Notice

Reference to GND

The ELM360x can measure with respect to GND in the range of -5 V...+21.5 V.

1) The input voltage must not fall below -5 V with respect to GND, the measuring accuracy is then no longer given. This means a measurement down to -10 V with respect to GND is only possible if at the same time an offset of at least +5 V is applied, as is usual with IEPE supply.

Note: In Extended Range Mode the Underrange/Overrange display in the PDO status has the character of an information/warning when the nominal measuring range is exceeded, i.e. no Error is displayed in the PDO status and LED. If the technical measuring range is also exceeded, Error = TRUE is also displayed. The detection limit for Underrange/Overrange Error can be set in the CoE.

In Legacy Range mode, an Underrange/Overrange event also leads to an Error in the PDO status.
