converter can handle up to 4 sensors. The slots in the menu are numbered top down from 1 to 4.

sensor. Slots without a sensor connected are shown with the text "empty slot". Connected
sensors are shown with their name, the measured value, the unit and a bar indicating
percentage of full scale. If the contact with a sensor is lost, the text "No transmitter" is displayed
in the slot where the sensor is configured. At the bottom of the screen, the min. and max. values
