Status display
Abrupt changes in the measured acceleration values are signaled in two ways:
- The LEDs "ACC1", "ACC2" and "ACC3" flash:
"ACC1" for the x-direction, "ACC2" for the y-direction, "ACC3" for the z-direction.
- The bits "Slope detected" in the process data are set synchronously with the LEDs.
You can use the LEDs for a quick function test after assembly. See chapter Function test.
Setting the sensitivity
You can set the sensitivity of the status display for each channel individually in the parameters 80n0:1E "Slope detection sensitivity".
Value | Name |
|---|---|
0 | Very high |
1 | High |
2 (factory setting) | Medium |
3 | Low |
4 | Very low |
65535 | Off |
This setting is stored non-volatile in the device. For a function test after assembly, you can therefore set the sensitivity in advance according to the expected vibrations.
