Limit indicator
Function
The characteristic of the limit indicator is laid down in the Limit value 
UL, Limit value LL, Hysteresis UL and Hysteresis LL settings. The 
fundamentals of the function are described in the introductory chapter 
(see section 6.3.2).
In order to set up the Limit indicator function for a relay output, the relay 
output must be linked with a sensor (see section 6.2.1).

Explanation
Limit values
UL main variable
LL main variable
UL adjoining var.
LL adjoining var.
Main variable 
designates the actual 
measured parameter of 
the sensor (e.g. pH, 
oxygen, etc.).
Adjoining variable 
designates an additional 
measured parameter 
(e.g. temperature).
Limit value UL
within the 
measuring range 
(sensor-dependent)
Any upper or lower 
limiting value
Limit value LL
Hysteresis UL
0 - 10 % of the 
measuring range
Hysteresis for upper or 
lower limiting value
Hysteresis LL
Behavior at error
Open
Close
Unchanged
The relay opens, closes, 
or remains unchanged in 
case of system errors or 
sensor errors (see page 
6-25).
Action
Open

Relay action
Switching delay
0 ... 3600 s
The time period for 
which a limiting value 
must be exceeded 
before the relay 
operates.
Prevents frequent 
switching for measured 
values that are close to 
the limiting value.
