Overview of limits

Limits
You can define a limit range with the message level "Warning" and/or a limit range of the
message level "Alarm" for each component.
A limit range combines several parameters but also includes an adjustable low and high
limit. Both limits can be activated independent of each other.
The limit monitoring of the device is not active during the warming-up and calibration phases.
You can configure digital outputs as limit relays in the "Digital outputs" parameter group.
Limit violations and the response of limit relays are entered in the logbook. Whether or not a
digital output is reset after a limit violation is eliminated depends on whether this limit
message has to be acknowledged or not.
Operating with the Local User Interface
Operating Manual, 06/2017, A5E31930478-05
If the message "Active" is displayed in the "Autoranging" line, autoranging is activated.
